Answer:

The Act that mandated the return of runaway slaves, regardless of where in the Union they might be situated at the time of their discovery or capture is the Fugitive Slave Act.

The Fugitive Slave Act was passed on September 18, 1850., as a part of the Compromise of 1850. According to this Act, the fugitive slaves must be returned to their owners, regardless of whether they are in a free or a slave state. Moreover, the government is held responsible for finding and returning fugitive slaves.
