All interest collected by the state treasurer on deposits, whether on time deposits or otherwise, in any bank, in any savings and loan association or in any credit union whose deposits are insured by an agency of the United States of money belonging to the common school permanent or income funds or to any other fund derived from lands granted to the state by any act of congress shall be treated by the state treasurer as income of the funds to which that money belongs and as collected by him shall be credited accordingly.

History: Laws 1929, ch. 92, § 2; C.S. 1929, § 112-202; 1941 Comp., § 7-226; 1953 Comp., § 11-2-29; Laws 1968, ch. 18, § 8; 1987, ch. 79, § 11.

The 1987 amendment, effective June 19, 1987, inserted "or in any credit union" following "savings and loan association" and made minor changes in language throughout the section.

Interest is generally an accretion or increment to principal fund earning it, and becomes a part of that fund. 1980 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 80-17.

Only enumerated funds entitled to interest income. — By excluding all other funds, this section seems to direct that only funds deposited in any bank belonging to common school permanent or income funds or other funds derived from lands granted to the state by any act of congress are entitled to the interest income upon bank deposits. 1932 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 32-510.

Disposition of interest on funds other than ones covered by this section. — All interest earnings upon daily balances on deposit, except on funds mentioned in this section, should be credited to the interest-on-deposits fund and eventually to the general fund of the state. 1932 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 32-510.
