(2) the use of funds collected under this article for these purposes is in the public interest, is a proper use of the funds, and is consistent with essential public and governmental purposes in the judicial branch of government; and
(3) the expansion, improvement, and initiation of legal services to indigent persons will aid in the advancement of the science of jurisprudence and in the improvement of the administration of justice.
