Whenever, by reason of any catastrophe, act of God or serious natural disaster, on or after January 1, 1993, a business for which a permit has been issued by the Department of Consumer Protection is discontinued, the Department of Consumer Protection shall upon written application of the permittee or his backer, rebate the unused amount of the permit fee on a daily basis during the period of such discontinuance or for the period until the permit premises are relocated or for the remainder of the permit period. The Comptroller is authorized to draw his order upon the Treasurer for the payment of such sums, less any taxes due the state from the permittee on the date of such payment and the sum of twenty dollars which also shall be deducted to defray expenses incurred in processing the rebate. Any rebate of one hundred dollars or less shall be retained by the state. The amount or amounts of taxes so withheld shall be credited to the respective tax revenue accounts on the records of the State Comptroller.
