"(4) All allocations under paragraph (3) shall be based upon the most accurate and complete data available for such fiscal year or for the most recent fiscal year for which accurate data are available. Eligible jurisdictions as defined in section 402(a)(4) may not receive an allocation based upon the population of eligible cities and counties as defined in section 402(a)(2), (3), and (5) unless such cities and counties participate in activities under this title as part of a combination of units of local government as defined in section 402(a)(4). In determining allocations for the eligible units as defined in section 402(a), an aggregate allocation may be utilized where eligible jurisdictions as defined in section 402(a) combine to meet the population requirements of section 402(a)(4). "(5) The amount made available pursuant to paragraph (3) to eligible units of local government within each State, as defined in section 402(a)(5), and to eligible jurisdictions, as defined in section 402(a)(2), (3), or (5) which choose not to combine pursuant to section 402(a)(4) and choose not to exercise the powers of section 402(c), shall be reserved and set aside in a special discretionary fund for use by the council pursuant to section 402 of this title, in making grants (in addition to any other grants which may be made under this title to the same entities or for the same purposes) to such units of local government or combinations thereof. The council shall allocate such funds among such local units of government or combinations thereof which make application pursuant to section 403 of this title, according to the criteria of this title and on the terms and conditions established by such council at its discretion. If in a particular State, there are no eligible units of local government, as defined in section 402(a)(2), (3), or (4), of this part, the amount otherwise reserved and set aside in the special discretionary fund shall consist of the entire amount made available to local units of government, pursuant to this section.

In this review the general criminal justice goals, priorities, and policies that have been developed pursuant to this part shall be considered.
