§ 3164 — Unemployment Compensation Administration Fund

(a) There shall be in the State Treasury a special fund to be known as the Unemployment Compensation Administration Fund. All moneys which are deposited or paid into this Fund shall be continuously available to the Department for expenditure in accordance with this part and shall not lapse at any time or be transferred to any other fund. All moneys in this Fund which are received from the federal government or any agency thereof or which are appropriated by this State for the purposes described in §§ 3151 and 3152 of this title shall be expended solely for the purposes and in the amounts found necessary by the Secretary of Labor of the United States for the proper and efficient administration of this part. The Administration Fund shall consist of all moneys appropriated by this State, all moneys received from the United States of America, or any agency thereof, including the Secretary of Labor of the United States, and all moneys received from any other source for such purpose, and shall also include any moneys received from any agency of the United States or any other state as compensation for services or facilities supplied to such agency, any amounts received pursuant to any surety bond or insurance policy or from other sources for losses sustained by the Unemployment Compensation Administration Fund or by reason of damage to equipment or supplies purchased from moneys in such Fund and any proceeds realized from the sale or disposition of any such equipment or supplies which may no longer be necessary for the proper administration of this part. All moneys in the Administration Fund shall be deposited, administered and disbursed, in the same manner and under the same conditions and requirements as is provided by law for other special funds in the State Treasury, except that moneys in this Fund shall not be commingled with other state funds, but shall be maintained in a separate account on the books of a depositary bank.

(b) The State Treasurer shall be liable on the Treasurer’s official bond for the faithful performance of duties in connection with the Administration Fund provided for under this section. Such liability on the official bond shall exist in addition to any liability upon any separate bond which may be given by the State Treasurer. All sums recovered on any surety bond for losses sustained by the Administration Fund shall be deposited in that Fund.
