Police Act 1990

Sections 216 and 216A (as in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 [1] to the amending Act) continue to apply to and in respect of a police officer as if those sections had not been repealed and amended, respectively, if—

the police officer was hurt on duty before the repeal of section 216, and

he or she is not subsequently entitled to a death or incapacity benefit in respect of that injury.

If an amount is paid under section 216 or 216A (as in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 [1] to the amending Act) in relation to a physical or mental injury for which a death or incapacity benefit is also paid, the person to whom the amount is paid is liable to repay the amount to the Commissioner.

Any amount due to the Commissioner under this clause may be recovered as a debt in a court of competent jurisdiction.

Subclauses (2) and (3) apply whether or not the amount was received before or after the commencement of this clause.
