| 11 | an agency may use the services of a tenant broker currently |
| 12 | under contract with the department notwithstanding that such |
| 13 | contract was procured prior to March 1, 2007. After July 1, |
| 14 | 2007, funds generated through the payment of commissions by |
| 15 | third-party landlords shall be deposited into a trust fund of |

| 21 | clarify the procedure for payment to the tenant broker, for |
| 22 | commissions earned through successfully completed transactions |
| 23 | under a contract procured prior to March 1, 2007. |
