(b) The amount of such reimbursement will be determined by the Commissioner of Education, who shall multiply the sum paid by each county or other political subdivision for such purpose during the period July 1, 1975 through June 30, 1976, less the amount of State aid due and payable pursuant to the former section 4403 of the Education Law for such costs, by the applicable percentage set forth in section 11 of chapter 853 of the Laws of 1976. The commissioner shall also prescribe the format and procedure for payment.
(c) Except as provided in subdivision (e) of this section, the Commissioner of Education shall notify each county or other political subdivision of the amount of such reimbursement by no later than June 1 of each year.
