A district attorney may request in writing a reasonable extension of the reporting period from the house and senate committees on ways and means. If such an extension is requested, the house and senate committees on ways and means shall not notify the state comptroller of a failure to comply with the reporting requirement until the extension period has elapsed. Upon receipt of said notification, the state comptroller shall make available to the witness protection board, established pursuant to section 2 of chapter 263A of the General Laws, the balance of said district attorney's Special Law Enforcement Trust Fund, established in section 47 of chapter 94C of the General Laws, and any additional money transferred into said trust fund after the reporting date.
