This section applies if:

a person is given an offer of redress under section 39; and

the person applies for review of the original determination.

If the person accepts or declines the offer in the acceptance period for the offer but before the review has been completed, then the application for review is taken to have been withdrawn immediately before the person accepted or declined the offer.

if the determination as varied or substituted approves the application for redress—give the person a new written offer of redress in accordance with section 39.

If:

on review, the original determination is affirmed; and

the determination as affirmed approves the application for redress; and

the person has been given an offer of redress under section 39;
