On the basis of the referral agreement provided for in article L. 262-32 of the Code de l’action sociale et des familles, the Prefect decides how to allocate funding between the bodies within which referrers may be appointed under Article L. 262-27 of the Code de l’action sociale et des familles. This distribution takes into account, in particular, the number of beneficiaries monitored by the organisation, the purpose of the assistance paid and the actual return to employment of beneficiaries. The agreement sets out the terms and conditions for payment and monitoring of expenditure. The Prefect notifies each organisation of the amounts allocated.
The appropriations thus allocated are paid out by the Fonds national des solidarités actives on the basis of the prefect’s order.
