A. The annuity savings funds A, B, and C shall be the funds to which shall be credited all accumulated contributions of members of Plans A, B, and C, respectively. From each of these funds shall be paid the refunded contributions because of withdrawal or death of a member, and the amounts required to be transferred to the annuity reserve funds as prescribed by Subsection C of this Section.
B. The pension accumulation funds A, B, and C shall be the funds to which shall be credited all payments to the system, exclusive of payments to the annuity savings or expense funds and including contributions from employers and taxes from sheriffs and ex officio tax collectors on behalf of members of Plans A, B, and C respectively. From each of these funds shall be paid the amounts required to be transferred to the annuity reserve funds as prescribed by Subsection C of this Section.
(1) On account of each member there shall be paid periodically as determined by the board, but not less than annually, into the pension accumulation funds, an amount equal to the employer contributions determined in accordance with R.S. 11:103.
(2) Each sheriff and ex officio tax collector, except in Orleans and East Baton Rouge parishes, shall deduct one-fourth of one percent of the aggregate amount of the tax shown to be collected by the tax roll of each respective parish which money each respective sheriff shall turn over to the Parochial Employees' Retirement System of Louisiana periodically on an annual basis at the same time said sheriff disburses funds to the tax recipient bodies of his respective parish.
(3) The taxes collected in accordance with Paragraphs (1) and (2) above, shall be allocated to either of or apportioned between the pension accumulation funds A and B, based upon recommendation of the actuary and approval by the board of trustees.
C. The annuity reserve funds A, B, and C shall be the funds in which shall be held the reserves for liabilities for retirees and beneficiaries of Plans A, B, and C, respectively. Upon retirement or death of a member the respective annuity reserve fund shall be credited with said member's accumulated contributions and the required additional amount from the respective pension accumulation fund, so as to provide for the benefits of the applicable plan. All benefits shall be paid to retirees or beneficiaries from the respective annuity reserve fund, including any refund of contributions upon death after retirement. Should a member, retired for disability, return to active employment at a rate of compensation not less than his final compensation at time of his last retirement, the balance of his accumulated contributions reduced by the member's annuity payments received, shall be transferred to the respective annuity savings fund and credited to his individual account therein.
