Compensation of commission, assistant Attorneys General, or
attorneys appointed by Governor -- Payment of awards -- Cost of operation.
The assistant Attorneys General or attorneys appointed by the Governor to
represent the Commonwealth's cabinets, departments, agencies or employees,
agents, or officers thereof, assigned to defend claims filed with the commission shall
receive no additional compensation for the performance of their duties before the
commission; provided, however, members of the commission, assistant Attorneys
General, and all employees acting for the commission shall be recompensed for all
necessary and actual expenses they may incur incident to their duties for or before
the commission. All awards and cost of operation assessed by the commission
against the Department of Highways shall be paid out of the state road fund upon
warrants drawn by the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet upon the
State Treasurer. All awards and costs of operation assessed by the commission
against other cabinets or agencies of the state, which are not maintained by
appropriations out of the general fund, shall be paid out of the funds created or
collected for the maintenance and operation of such cabinets or agencies
respectively, upon warrants drawn by the secretary of the Finance and
Administration Cabinet upon the State Treasurer. All amounts necessary to pay
awards and costs of operation assessed by the commission against all other
cabinets or agencies of the Commonwealth shall be paid out of the general fund of
the Commonwealth, upon warrants drawn by the secretary of the Finance and
Administration Cabinet upon the State Treasurer. The executive secretary of the
commission shall maintain accurate records reflecting the costs incident to the
operation of the commission. At the close of each quarter-year period, he shall
summarize the cost and shall bill each cabinet, commission, board, or agency which
has had cases before the commission for a pro-rata share of the cost of operation
for the appropriate calendar quarter computed in a manner deemed just and
equitable by the commission. Each cabinet, commission, board, or agency shall
remit quarterly their share of the cost of operation to the commission in the manner
provided by law. The commission shall have the power and authority to determine
the right of any successful party to an action before it to recover from the opposing
party the costs incurred by him or it in such action; and such decision shall not be
subject to appeal. Costs shall not include attorneys' fees.
