Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 657 § 657.825 — Expenditure of federal funds; restitution of moneys lost or improperly

Expenditure of federal funds; restitution of moneys lost or improperly expended. (1) All moneys in the Unemployment Compensation Administration Fund which are received from the federal government or any agency thereof or which are appropriated by this state for the purposes described in ORS 657.820 shall be expended solely for the purposes and in the amounts found necessary by the Secretary of Labor for the proper and efficient administration of this chapter. (2) If any moneys received for the Unemployment Compensation Administration Fund under title III of the Social Security Act or the Wagner-Peyser Act are found by the Secretary of Labor, because of any action or contingency, to have been lost or 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 this chapter, it is the policy of this state that such moneys shall be replaced by moneys appropriated for such purpose from the General Fund of this state to the Unemployment Compensation Administration Fund for expenditure as provided in ORS 657.820. Upon receipt of notice of such a finding by the Secretary of Labor, the Director of the Employment Department promptly shall report the amount required for such replacement to the Governor. The Governor shall, at the earliest opportunity, submit to the legislature a request for the appropriation of such amount. This section shall not be construed to relieve this state of its obligations with respect to funds received prior to July 1, 1941, pursuant to title III of the Social Security Act.
