(b) The Director or the parties to a prison industry joint venture agreement may purchase insurance to protect against the risk of loss, theft, or damage of finished or unfinished products produced by a prison industry wherever these products, equipment, materials, and supplies are located while in the possession of the Department or a prison industry, in transit to or from the possession of the Department or a correctional industry, or in storage. The cost of the insurance shall be paid from the Fund if such payment is authorized by Congress in an appropriations act.
