11-10-322. Employment Security Administration Fund -- Reimbursement of the fund.

(a) If any money in the Employment Security Administration Fund, paid to this state under Title III of the Social Security Act or the Wagner-Peyser Act, is found by the United States Secretary of Labor, because of any action or contingency, to have been lost or to have been expended for purposes other than, or in amounts in excess of, those found necessary by the Secretary of Labor for the proper administration of the employment security program, it is the policy of this state that the money shall be replaced by money appropriated for that purpose by the state to the fund for expenditure as provided in this chapter.

(b) Upon receipt of such a finding by the Secretary of Labor, the Director of the Arkansas Employment Security Department shall promptly report the amount required for the replacement to the Governor, and the Governor shall, at the earliest opportunity, submit to the General Assembly a request for the appropriation of that amount.
