Cal. UIC § 1531

The director shall, without presenting vouchers and itemized statements therefor, withdraw from the benefit account any sums which he deems necessary for the payment of benefits for a reasonable future period. The Controller shall draw his warrant for any claim presented by the director for the payment of benefits under this account and the Treasurer shall pay the warrant. Upon the withdrawal thereof, such sums shall be deposited in a benefit payment account in such bank, savings and loan association, or public depository and under such conditions as the director determines, with the approval of the Department of Finance. Such bank, savings and loan association, or public depository shall be one in which general funds of the state may be deposited, but no public deposit insurance charge or premium shall be paid out of the benefit payment account. The director may, out of funds available for administration, pay premiums on insurance for the protection of money in his possession.
