Any funds unspent and unencumbered at the end of each fiscal year shall not revert to any other fund in the State Treasury but shall be carried forward to the succeeding fiscal year. All funds in the Employee Injury Compensation Trust Fund may be invested and reinvested by the Director of Finance, through the Division of Risk Management, under the same terms as apply to the State Insurance Fund. There is hereby appropriated from the Employee Injury Compensation Trust Fund such amounts as are necessary to pay claims, benefits, administrative costs, and all other costs of the program.
