The paying agent shall submit as of June 30 and December 31 of each year, and within thirty (30) days of that date, a statement of the amount paid on bonds and interest coupons of each bond issue during the previous twelve (12) months and the balance remaining in its hands for such payment at the conclusion of one (1) year on the date submitted, and at least one (1) year from the date the bonds or coupons were due. With the statement submitted, the paying agent shall remit and refund, without demand or request, such balance in its hands. Any money so recovered shall be deposited to the credit of the fund from which it was drawn, and if said fund no longer exists, then said money shall be deposited to the credit of the general fund of the state, county, district or municipality, as the case may be.
