**(a) In general** For any fiscal year after the end of the period for implementation, a jurisdiction that fails, as determined by the Attorney General, to substantially implement this subchapter shall not receive 10 percent of the funds that would otherwise be allocated for that fiscal year to the jurisdiction under subpart 1 of part E of title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 ([42 U.S.C. 3750](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section3750&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.).11 See References in Text note below.
