N.Y. Retirement & Social Security Law § 139: Costs of administration

§ 139. Costs of administration. 1. On and after April first, nineteen

hundred fifty-five, the state and each political subdivision extending

old-age and survivors insurance coverage to its employees shall

contribute to the annual cost of administering the provisions of this

article. The director, during the month of March, nineteen hundred

fifty-six, and at the close of each fiscal year of the state thereafter,

shall determine the pro rata share of such annual cost to be contributed

by the state and by each political subdivision. Such share shall be

determined on the basis of the ratio which contributions required to be

made to the contribution fund by the state or such political

subdivision, as the case may be, bear to the total amount of

contributions required to be made to such fund during such fiscal year.

2. The director shall thereupon submit to the fiscal officer of each

political subdivision a statement of the amount to be contributed by it

pursuant to this section. Payment of the amount specified in such

statement shall be made by each political subdivision within sixty days

after the receipt thereof.

3. There shall be included in the budget estimate of the state agency

furnished to the division of the budget an estimate of the amount

necessary to meet the state's pro rata share of the cost of

administering the provisions of this article during the current fiscal

year.

4. Amounts received from political subdivisions pursuant to this

section and amounts appropriated by the legislature to meet the state's

pro rata share of the costs of administering this article shall be used

to reimburse the state purposes fund in the general fund for any

advances made from such fund for the purpose of administering the

provisions of this article.
