(1) From the state general fund for participants’ retirement benefits, the amount determined by the board, on recommendation of an actuary, which, when added to the part of the fund held for benefits at the date of the appropriation, is equal to the total liability of the fund for benefits to the end of the biennium.
(2) From the earnings on the fund, for administration purposes, the amount required during the biennium, as determined by the board on the basis of experience. The amount required for administration shall be paid out as the operating expenses of other state departments are paid.
