December 31, 2021 and must not be used by the qualified unit to meet its actuarially determined contribution for a qualified retirement system or systems.

(2) To qualify for a grant award under this section, a qualified unit must certify and attest via an affidavit that it shall implement all of the following practices upon the receipt of a grant award:

(a) The qualified unit shall make, in full, all actuarially determined contributions. If a qualified unit's actual contribution is less than the actuarially determined contribution, the qualified unit shall remit an amount equal to the difference to the qualified retirement system within 12 months.
