Sec. 29.
The reserve for employee contributions is the account in which member contributions made under the contributory retirement plan and other member payments as provided by statute shall be accumulated. The retirement board shall provide for the maintenance of an individual subaccount for each member of the retirement system showing the amount of the member's contributions together with regular interest accumulations on the amount. The contributions refunded to a member upon the member's withdrawal from service or paid to the member's legal representative, estate, or refund beneficiary in event of the member's or former member's death shall be paid from the reserve for employee contributions. Accumulated contributions not refunded to a member or paid to the member's or former member's legal representative, estate, or refund beneficiary shall be transferred from the reserve for employee contributions to the reserve for employer contributions. The accumulated contributions of a member, upon retirement or upon death if a retirement allowance is payable, shall be transferred from the reserve for employee contributions to the reserve for retired benefit payments.
