Australian Participants in British Nuclear Tests and British Commonwealth Occupation Force (Treatment) Act 2006

The Commission may reduce the amount of any payment that becomes payable to a person if:

an amount has previously been paid to the person:

purportedly by way of reimbursement to a person under subsection 13(4); or

purportedly as travelling expenses under Part 3; and

the amount paid exceeds the amount (if any) that should have been paid; and

the person agrees to the reduction.

The amount of the reduction must not exceed:

if the Commission has not previously reduced a payment under this section—the amount of the excess; and

otherwise—the amount by which the sum of all amounts of excess under subsection (1) exceeds the sum of all amounts recovered under this section.
