Sec. 1385.8  Formula for determining allotments.

    The Commissioner will allocate funds appropriated under the Act for 
the State Developmental Disabilities Councils and the Protection and 
Advocacy Systems on the following basis:
    (a) Two-thirds of the amount appropriated are allotted to each State 
according to the ratio the population of each State bears to the 
population of the United States. This ratio is weighted by the relative 
per capita income for each State. The data used to compute allotments 
are supplied by the U.S. Department of Commerce, for the three most 
recent consecutive years for which satisfactory data are available.
    (b) One-third of the amount appropriated is allotted to each State 
on the basis of the relative need for services of persons with 
developmental disabilities. The relative need is determined by the 
number of persons receiving benefits under the Childhood Disabilities 
Beneficiary Program (section 202(d)(1)(B)(ii) of the Social Security 
Act), (42 U.S.C. 402(d)(1)(B)(ii)).
