Reasonable and necessary administrative costs associated with managing the fund or school trust lands may be paid from the fund in the manner prescribed by law. The distribution policy shall be prescribed by law and consistent with the aforementioned principles. Distributions from the fund shall be apportioned to the different school districts of the state in a manner prescribed by law."
