b) there are reasonable grounds for believing that the claimant may also be entitled, whether by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise, to a benefit from the other Party and that, if paid, would affect the amount of that first‑mentioned benefit;
 that first‑mentioned benefit shall not be paid or continue to be paid if a claim is not duly lodged for payment of the second‑mentioned benefit or if that claim is not actively pursued.
2. Where:
a) a benefit under this Agreement or otherwise is claimed from one of the Parties and, as a result of that claim, a benefit is payable by a Party to a person in respect of a past period and that past period occurred after the entry into force of this Agreement;
b) for all or part of that period, the other Party has paid to that person a benefit under its legislation; and
c) the amount of the benefit paid by that other Party would have been reduced had the benefit referred to in subparagraph (a) been paid during that past period,
 then the amount that would not have been paid by the other Party had the benefit described in subparagraph (a) been paid on a periodical basis throughout the past period shall, for the purposes of this Article, be referred to as an "overpayment".

The latter Competent Institution shall if so requested deduct the amount of the overpayment
