(a) The Insurance Fund shall, in addition to the funds specified in Section 12975.7, consist of all of the following:

(1) All moneys appropriated to the fund in accordance with law.

(2) All moneys deposited into the State Treasury from any source whatever in payment of lawful fees or reimbursements collected by the Department of Insurance.

(3) The balance remaining in the Insurance Fund at the end of the fiscal year, whether the moneys received are from an appropriation, fees, or from reimbursements for services rendered.

(b) (1) All moneys in the Insurance Fund credited to the Seismic Safety Account shall be subject to an annual appropriation each fiscal year for the purposes specified in Section 12975.9.

(2) All other moneys in the Insurance Fund shall be subject to an annual appropriation each fiscal year for the support of the Department of Insurance.

(3) If the current cash balance in the Seismic Safety Account is not adequate to fund the amount appropriated from it in the annual Budget Act, the Insurance Fund, upon enactment of the Budget Act, shall loan to the account the amount of the appropriation, and one half of this amount shall be transferred to the Seismic Safety Commission. The second half of the appropriated amount shall be transferred to the Seismic Safety Commission from the Seismic Safety Account on or before December 31 of each year. This loan shall be repaid by revenues collected pursuant to Section 12975.9.

(c) Any balance remaining in the Insurance Fund at the end of the fiscal year may be carried forward to the next succeeding fiscal year.

(d) Whenever the balance in the Insurance Fund is not sufficient to cover cashflow in the payment of authorized expenditures, the department may borrow funds as may be necessary from whatever source and under terms and conditions as may be determined by the Director of Finance. Repayment shall be made from revenues received by the department for the same fiscal year for which the loan is made.
