The Director may make allocations of money from the Contingency Account to applicants and may place such conditions on the acceptance of such an allocation as the Director determines are necessary, including, without limitation, requiring the recipient of an allocation to submit periodic reports concerning the recipient’s use of the allocation.
4. The recipient of an allocation of money from the Contingency Account may use the money only for the purposes of establishing or providing programs or services to victims of human trafficking.
