Recovery of money owing to Fund
52 Recovery of money owing to Fund
STC may recover any money owing to the Fund by a contributor, employer or other person, together with interest thereon as provided by subsection (3)—
except in the case of unpaid contributions—as a debt in a court of competent jurisdiction,
where any amount is, or becomes, payable from the Fund to the contributor, employer or other person—by deduction from that amount, or
in the case of a contributor who is an employee—by deduction from the contributor’s salary in accordance with subsection (2) by such instalments and at such times as STC determines.
An employer shall, at the written request of STC, make deductions from a contributor’s salary as referred to in subsection (1) (c) and pay the amount thereof to STC, and an amount so deducted and paid shall be deemed to have been paid to the Fund by the contributor from whose salary the deduction was made.
Interest at a rate from time to time determined by STC is payable on any amount owing to the Fund calculated from the date on which the amount became due for payment until the date on which the amount is recovered under subsection (1) or is otherwise paid.
