On or before November 15 of each year, the commissioner shall estimate the amount necessary to be appropriated to carry out the provisions of this act for the succeeding fiscal year, including costs for adequate State supervisory and administrative control, and needed personnel training.
The commissioner shall determine the amounts to be payable to each of the agencies eligible under this act for the succeeding fiscal year based upon the per student cost per hour of instruction.
