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)).
