(2) So much of the capital of the Reserve Fund as is for the time being not required for making payments by the Board in pursuance of this Act shall be invested and kept invested by the Board in securities authorised by law for the investment of trust funds or authorised under section 23 of the Principal Act for the investment of the Hospitals Trust Fund.
