If any money received after June 30, 1941, from the department of labor of the United

States of America under Title 3 of the Social Security Act, 1 or any unencumbered balances in the unemployment compensation administration fund

as of that date, or any money granted after that date to this state pursuant to the

provisions of the Wagner-Peyser Act, 2 or any money made available by this state or its political subdivisions and matched

by money granted to this state pursuant to the provisions of the Wagner-Peyser Act,

is found by the secretary of labor of the United States of America, 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 of the

United States of America for the proper administration of the Unemployment Compensation

Law, it is the policy of this state that such money shall be replaced by money appropriated

for such purpose from the general fund to the unemployment compensation administration

fund for expenditure as provided in Section 51-1-34 NMSA 1978 . Upon receipt of notice of such a finding by the secretary of labor of the United

States of America, the secretary shall promptly report the amount required for such

replacement to the governor and 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 obligation with

respect to funds received prior to July 1, 1941, pursuant to the provisions of Title

3 of the Social Security Act. 1
