350. The contribution is payable on a monthly basis, on the first day of each month, for the month elapsed.
The monthly contribution required is the amount obtained by using, according to the age category to which the placed child belongs, the daily rate payable to a foster family on the first day of January preceding the day on which the contribution is paid, in accordance with the Order in Council* made under section 153 of the Act, for taking charge of a child in that category, and by multiplying the daily rate by 20.
Where the daily rate payable to a foster family changes during the year, the new rate shall be used to determine the monthly contribution required.
In determining the age category of the placed child for the purposes of this section, only the day on which the child is placed and the first day of January of each year subsequent thereto are taken into account.
*See the Regulation respecting the classification of services offered by family-type resources and the rates of compensation applicable of each type of service (chapter S-4.2, r. 2).
