§ 34-13-8-9 — Establishment of fund

(a) The supplemental state fair relief fund is
established for the purpose of providing supplemental relief to the
victims of the occurrence.
(b) The supplemental fund consists of grants, donations, and
appropriations made by the general assembly. The supplemental fund
shall be administered by the attorney general. The treasurer of state
shall invest the money in the supplemental fund not currently needed
to meet the obligations of the supplemental fund in the same manner
as other public money may be invested. Interest that accrues from these
investments shall be deposited in the state general fund. The expenses
of administering the supplemental fund shall be paid from the state tort
claim fund established to pay claims and expenses under IC 34-13-3-24.
(c) The supplemental fund is considered a trust fund for purposes of
IC 4-9.1-1-7. Money may not be transferred, assigned, or otherwise
removed from the supplemental fund by the state board of finance, the
budget agency, or any other state agency except as provided in this
chapter.
(d) Money in the supplemental fund at the end of a state fiscal year
does not revert to the state general fund. Money in the supplemental
fund is continually appropriated to the attorney general to carry out the
purposes of the supplemental fund.
