(a) To each of the 50 States and the District of Columbia there is allocated an amount equal to its share of the total available under section 418(a)(3) of the Social Security Act. That amount is based on the same ratio as the number of children under age 13 residing in the State bears to the national total of children under age 13. The number of children under 13 is derived from the best data available to the Secretary for the second preceding fiscal year.
(b) For purposes of this subsection, the amounts available under section 418(a)(3) of the Social Security Act excludes the amounts reserved and allocated under Sec. 98.60(b)(1) for technical assistance and under Sec. 98.62(a) and (b) for the Mandatory Fund.
(c) Amounts under this subsection are available pursuant to the requirements at Sec. 98.53(c).
