# Decision Making

Here are the entities that ultimately decide how each of Virginia’s opioid settlement shares are spent:

* **55% Opioid Abatement Fund share:** [Virginia Opioid Abatement Authority](https://www.oaa.virginia.gov/) (OAA) decides majority
* **30% local share:** local officials for cities and counties
* **15% state share:** [Virginia General Assembly](https://virginiageneralassembly.gov/)
