If the per capita county cost of welfare is less than the Statewide per capita cost of welfare, there shall be no entitlement for that year. For the purpose of this act: a. "population" means the population estimates of the Department of Labor and Industry for the most recent year before the year in which the distribution is made; except that in the 2 calendar years immediately following a Federal decennial census, the census figures shall be used; b. "cost of welfare to the county government" means the amount expended by the county to meet its share of the net assistance cost of the supplemental security income and aid to families with dependent children programs, exclusive of administrative and social services expenditures.
