eligible entity receiving a distribution under this subdivision

 

shall expend the distribution only for the in-service criminal

 

justice training of its police officers. An eligible entity that

 

uses money received under this subdivision shall maintain detailed

 

records of the actual costs associated with the preparation for,

 

the administration of, and the actual conducting of the training


 

program. Use of money received under this subdivision for the

 

payment of unreasonable or duplicative costs, as determined by the

 

commission, shall result in the forfeiture of the money received by

 

the eligible entity under this subdivision. Money distributed to an

 

eligible entity which is not expended in the fiscal year of the

 

distribution shall only be expended by the eligible entity for the

 

in-service criminal justice training of its police officers in

 

future fiscal years. An eligible entity receiving a distribution

 

pursuant to this subdivision shall use the entire distribution for

 

the in-service criminal justice training of its police officers

 

within 2 years after receiving the distribution. If the eligible

 

entity fails or refuses to use the entire distribution for the in-

 

service criminal justice training of its police officers within 2

 

years after receiving the distribution, the eligible entity shall

 

not be eligible to receive additional distributions pursuant to

 

this subdivision until the prior distribution is used for the in-

 

service criminal justice training of its police officers. A

 

distribution made under this subdivision shall serve as a

 

supplement to, and not as a replacement for, the funds budgeted on

 

October 12, 1982, by an eligible entity for the in-service criminal

 

justice training of its police officers. The distribution shall be

 

made in 2 semiannual installments on dates determined by the

 

commission and shall be expended only for the direct costs of the

 

in-service criminal justice training of police officers. The funds

 

shall be distributed on a per capita basis to eligible entities

 

based upon the number of full-time equated sworn MLEOTC certified

 

police officers employed. Each eligible entity shall receive a


 

minimum distribution of $500.00. For purposes of this subdivision,

 

the number of full-time equated sworn MLEOTC certified police

 

officers shall be determined by dividing the total number of paid

 

work hours actually worked by sworn MLEOTC certified police

 

officers in the eligible entity's fiscal year by 2,080 hours,

 

rounded down to the nearest whole number. For each year, the

 

percentage of police officers who provide direct police service

 

receiving training under this act shall be equal to or greater than

administrative positions receiving training under this act.

this subdivision shall maintain detailed records of the actual

 

costs associated with the preparation for, the administration of,

 

and the actual conducting of the training program. Use of money

 

received under this subdivision for the payment of unreasonable or

 

duplicative costs, as determined by the auditor general or the

 

commission, shall result in the forfeiture of the money received by


 

the state or local agency under this subdivision. Grants under this

 

subdivision shall be distributed only to the following:

 

     (i) State or local agencies for the purpose of providing in-

 

service criminal justice training programs to employees of those

 

state or local agencies. A distribution made under this

training to the employees or the contractual service providers of
