reapportioned
Allocated once more
Reapportioned means distributed or allocated again, typically after circumstances have changed.
The word appears most often in political contexts, where legislative seats are reapportioned among districts based on new census data: Congressional seats were reapportioned after the population shifted southward.
Resources, responsibilities, or blame can also be reapportioned.
