an individual has been paid a training and learning bonus or an education entry payment supplement; and

after the payment was made to the individual, a determination in relation to the individual, at least so far as it relates to 3 February 2009 or to a period that includes that day, is or was (however described) changed, revoked, set aside, or superseded by another determination; and

the determination is one to which subsection (2) applies in relation to the payment; and

the decision to change, revoke, set aside or supersede the determination is or was made for the reason, or for reasons including the reason, that the individual knowingly made a false or misleading statement, or knowingly provided false information; and

If:

the Secretary has paid a person’s training and learning bonus to another person (the recipient) under subsection 47C(3) or (4) of the Administration Act; and

the reason why, or one of the reasons why, the Secretary decided to pay the bonus to the recipient was that the recipient made a particular statement or provided particular information; and

after the payment is made, the Secretary becomes satisfied that:

the statement or information is false or misleading; and

the recipient made the statement, or provided the information, knowing that it was false or misleading; and

the bonus should have been paid to a person other than the recipient;
