Sec. 59a.

The county or city department of social welfare, as part of its general relief program, may provide funds and necessary attendants for the return of a person to his place of residence as authorized in section 55, or to a new place of residence under the conditions of sections 59 or 59f. State or county funds shall not be used for the return of a person to another nation who may be deported under federal law.

If the probable place of legal settlement is in Michigan and the probable place of domicile is in some other county of this state, the county department where application for aid was made, within 60 calendar days following the application, shall give notice and necessary information in writing to the county department of the county of probable domicile on forms prescribed for that purpose by the state department. If it appears that domicile may lie in any 1 of 2 or more counties notices shall be sent to all such counties. If the notice is not given to the county of probable domicile within 60 days following the application for aid, the county granting relief to the applicant shall have no claim whatsoever irrespective of any other provisions of this act, for reimbursement for the relief granted the applicant prior to 60 calendar days preceding the date the notice is given to the county of probable domicile.
