They shall be sold at not less than par and accrued interest and the full faith and credit of the state are pledged for the payment of the interest thereon as the same becomes due and the payment of the principal thereof at maturity.

(b) Such portion of the proceeds from the sale of such bonds and of any notes issued in anticipation thereof as may be required for such purpose shall be applied to the payment of the principal of any such notes then outstanding and unpaid, and the remaining proceeds of any such sale shall be deposited in a fund designated the “Rental Housing Fund for the Elderly”, which fund shall be used to make or provide for the capital grants, loans, deferred loans or advances authorized by section 8-114a and the payments authorized by section 8-119b. Payments from the Rental Housing Fund for the Elderly to authorities, municipal developers, nonprofit corporations or housing partnerships shall be made by the State Treasurer on certification of the Commissioner of Housing in accordance with the contract for financial assistance between the state and such authority, municipal developer, nonprofit corporation or housing partnership.
