45UW Commission may request the provision of information
The Commission may, by notice in writing, request a person to whom this Division applies to provide to the Commission, within a period specified in the notice, any information that it considers would have been relevant:
for the purpose of determining whether the person:
was registered as a member of the SSA pension bonus scheme; or
in the opinion of the Commission, could have been so registered before becoming a war widow/war widower—pensioner had the person applied for that registration; and
for the purpose of working out the bonus periods that the person would have accrued under the social security law:
if the person was registered as a member of the SSA pension bonus scheme—if the person had made a claim for pension bonus under that law immediately before becoming a war widow/war widower—pensioner; and
if the person was not so registered but, in the opinion of the Commission, could have been so registered before becoming a war widow/war widower—pensioner had the person applied for that registration—if the person had been so registered from the earliest day that the person could have been so registered and, immediately before becoming a war widow/war widower—pensioner, had made a claim for pension bonus under that law.
