(A) There is hereby created the unemployment compensation administration fund as a special fund in the state treasury. All moneys that are deposited or paid into this fund are available to the director of job and family services only for the administration of this chapter. All moneys in this fund that are received from the United States or any agency thereof or that are appropriated by this state for the purposes described in section 4141.04 of the Revised Code, shall be expended solely for the purposes and in the amounts found necessary by the proper agency of the United States for the proper and efficient administration of this chapter. The fund shall consist of all moneys appropriated by this state, and all moneys received from the United States or any agency thereof, including the proper agency of the United States, the railroad retirement board, and the United States department of labor, or from any other source, for such purpose, except that moneys received from the railroad retirement board as compensation for services or facilities supplied to that board shall be paid into this fund on the same basis as expenditures are made for such services or facilities from such fund and account. All moneys in this fund shall be deposited, administered, and disbursed in the same manner and under the same conditions and requirements as are other special funds in the state treasury. The treasurer of state is liable on the treasurer of state's official bond for the faithful performance of the treasurer of state's duties in connection with this fund. Any balances in this fund shall not lapse at any time, but shall be continuously available to the director for expenditure.
(B) If any moneys received from the proper agency of the United States under Title III of the "Social Security Act," or any unencumbered balances in the fund as of that date, or any moneys granted to this state pursuant to the Wagner-Peyser acts, or any moneys made available by this state or its political subdivisions and matched by such moneys granted to this state pursuant to the Wagner-Peyser acts are found by the proper agency of the United States because of any action or contingency, to have been lost or expended for purposes other than, or in amounts in excess of, those found necessary by the proper agency of the United States for the proper administration of this chapter, such moneys shall be replaced by moneys appropriated for such purpose from the general funds of this state to the unemployment compensation administration fund for expenditure as provided in division (A) of this section. Upon receipt of notice of such a finding by the proper agency of the United States, the director shall promptly report the amount required for such replacement to the governor and the governor shall at the earliest opportunity submit to the general assembly a request for the appropriation of such amount.
