One or more public agencies and one or more private entities that provide child care or operate child day care facilities, as defined in Section 1596.750 of the Health and Safety Code, may enter into a joint powers agreement to form an insurance pooling arrangement for the payment of unemployment compensation or tort liability losses incurred by these public and private entities.

A joint powers agency or entity formed pursuant to this section may not elect to finance unemployment insurance coverage under Article 5 (commencing with Section 801) of Chapter 3 of Part 1 of Division 1 of the Unemployment Insurance Code unless each member entity individually satisfies the requirements set forth in Section 801 or 802 of the Unemployment Insurance Code.

Either a public agency or private entity entering into a joint powers agreement under this section shall establish or maintain a reserve fund to be used to pay losses incurred under the agreement. The reserve fund shall contain sufficient moneys to maintain the fund on an actuarially sound basis.
