      1.  At least twice each year, the Division shall:

      (a) Prepare a list of persons who are eligible to receive assistance from the Fund; and

      (b) Determine whether the amount of money in the Fund is sufficient to provide assistance to each person whose name appears on the list.

      2.  If the Division determines that the amount of money in the Fund is not sufficient to provide assistance to each person whose name appears on the list, the Division shall determine which of those eligible persons will receive assistance from the Fund.

      3.  The Division shall prepare a list of the persons who are eligible to receive assistance from the Fund but do not receive assistance because the amount of money in the Fund is insufficient to provide assistance to those persons. The Division shall ensure that the persons whose names appear on that list receive assistance from the Fund as soon as practicable after the money to provide that assistance becomes available.

      4.  Each person who receives assistance from the Fund must receive a percentage of his or her rent which is equal to the percentage of rent received by every other person who receives assistance from the Fund.
