reconsideration of claim | overpayment | authority to write off |
Summary:
The legislation gives no power to the Umpire to write-off an overpayment. This is strictly left to the discretion of the Commission under reg. 60. Nevertheless, I would strongly recommend to the Commission that they exercise their discretion to write-off the overpayment.
