Statutory interest on a refunded investigation deposit treated as a pre-deposit is confined to the rate prescribed by the governing provision and notification. Where the statute creates the right to interest and fixes the rate, the claimant cannot seek a higher amount on equitable or restitutionary grounds unless the provision or notification itself is challenged. Applying that principle, the Court upheld interest at 6% per annum and rejected the claim for a higher rate, holding that no substantial question of law arose and dismissing the appeal.
