Section 325. Administration expenses

The entire expense of administering
  this article shall be paid out of the special fund and charged thereto.
    At least thirty days prior to the first days of April and  October  in
  each  year,  the chairman shall submit to the director of the budget for
  his approval an estimated budget of expenditures for the succeeding  six
  months.  In the event of attack within the state for which civil defense
  volunteers are mobilized or outside the state if, in accordance  with  a
  mutual  aid  agreement  approved  by  the  New  York state civil defense
  commission, civil defense volunteers of any local office  respond  to  a
  request  for  assistance,  the  chairman shall prepare and submit to the
  director  of  the  budget  for  his  approval  an  estimated  budget  of
  expenditures for funds to be allocated to the board during the period of
  emergency. There may not be expended for purposes of such administration
  more  than  the  amounts  specified  in  such  budget  for  each item of
  expenditure, except as authorized by the director  of  the  budget.  The
  funds  so  allocated by the director of the budget shall be available to
  the workmen's compensation board for services  and  expenses,  including
  travel  outside  the  state, to carry out the provisions of this article
  and shall be paid  from  the  treasury  on  audit  and  warrant  of  the
  comptroller  on  vouchers  approved  by  the  chairman, vice chairman or
  secretary of the board. If there be officers or employees of  the  board
  whose  duties  relate partly to the general work of the board and partly
  to such administration, and in case there  is  other  expense  which  is
  incurred  jointly on behalf of the general work of the board and to such
  administration, an equitable apportionment of the expense shall be  made
  and  the  part thereof which is applicable to administration as provided
  in this article shall be chargeable thereto.
