§ 89503. The trustees may authorize payments into a private fund to provide health and wel

(a) The trustees may authorize payments into a private fund to provide health and welfare benefits to nonpermanent employees of the class specified in Section 19830 of the Government Code employed by the trustees, upon a finding by the trustees as to any position that the criteria stated in subdivision (a) of Section 19831 of the Government Code are satisfied. (b) Payments made by the state pursuant to this section to any fund on behalf of any employees shall be in lieu of benefits such as vacation allowance, sick leave, and retirement that may be granted directly by the state in accordance with law. (c) The trustees may determine the equitable application of this section to ensure that the employees receive benefits comparable to, but not in excess of, those provided in comparable private employment. (d) The payments authorized by this section shall be a proper charge against any funds available for the support of the California State University. (e) If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to Chapter 12 (commencing with Section 3560) of Division 4 of Title 1 of the Government Code, the memorandum of understanding shall be controlling without further legislative action, except that, if the provisions of a memorandum of understanding require the expenditure of funds, the provisions shall not become effective unless approved by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act.
