Ch. 6

1994 LAWS OF MARYLAND

(3) [to] TO make payment to the Secretary of the Treasury in accordance
with such agreement, including payments from its own funds and otherwise to comply
with such agreements.

(B-1) Such agreements, shall to the extent practicable, be consistent with the terms
and provisions of subsection (a) OF THIS SECTION and other provisions of this [subtitle]
SUBHEADING.

(c) Pursuant to § 218(d)(6) of the Social Security Act, the State Employees'
Retirement System and the Teachers' Retirement System shall each, for the purposes of
this [subtitle] SUBHEADING, be deemed to constitute a separate retirement system with
respect to the State and a separate retirement system with respect to each political
subdivision having positions covered by the State Employees' Retirement System and a
separate retirement system with respect to each institution of higher learning, as provided
under § 218(d)(6) of the Social Security Act, having positions covered by the Teachers'
Retirement System.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section formerly was Art. 89, § 32. .

Former Art. 89, § 32 is not retained in the Code because it is apparently
obsolete. However, it is transferred to the Session Laws to avoid any
inadvertent substantive effect that its repeal might have.

The only changes are in style.

[33.] 5.

(a)     Every employee of the State whose services are covered by an agreement
entered into under [§ 32 of this subtitle] § 4 OF THIS SUBHEADING shall be required to
pay for the period of such coverage, into the Contribution Fund established by [§ 35 of
this subtitle] § 7 OF THIS SUBHEADING, contributions, with respect to wages (as defined
in [§ 31 of this subtitle] § 3 OF THIS SUBHEADING), equal to the amount of the
employee tax which would be imposed by the Federal Insurance Contributions Act if such
services constituted employment within the meaning of that act. Such liability shall arise
in consideration of the employee's retention in the service of the State, or [his] entry
upon such service, after June 1, 1955.

(b)     The contribution imposed by this section shall be collected by deducting the
amount of the contribution from wages as and when paid, but failure to make such
deduction shall not relieve the employee from liability for such contribution.

(c)     If more or less than the correct amount of the contribution imposed by this
section is paid or deducted with respect to any remuneration, proper adjustments, or
refund if adjustment is impracticable, shall be made, without interest, in such manner and
at such times as the State Agency shall prescribe.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section formerly was Art. 89, § 33.

Former Art. 89, § 33 is not retained in the Code because it is apparently
obsolete. However, it is transferred to the Session Laws to avoid any
inadvertent substantive effect that its repeal might have.
