The fee shall be collected and forwarded to the state police by the licensing body or the employer.

(2) The department of state police shall submit a written report to the secretary of the senate and the clerk of the house of representatives by October 1 of each year stating whether the fee charged under subsection (1) is sufficient to support the actual costs of fingerprinting and what the actual costs of fingerprinting are.
