(3) If, after subtracting the amount recovered from the province in the fiscal year in respect of the net aggregate of overpayments, there remains an outstanding balance for the net aggregate of overpayments, that balance shall be deferred until the following fiscal year and be taken into account when calculating the net total referred to in paragraph (1)(a) for that following fiscal year. (4) Despite subsection (2), if any portion of the deferred outstanding balance remains outstanding at the end of the second fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the recovery of that net aggregate of overpayments was first subject to the amounts set out in subsection (2), it shall be recovered during the fiscal year that immediately follows that second fiscal year.
