503E  Rate of parenting payment where participation agreement breach rate reduction period applies

Participation agreement breach reduced rate

 (1) If a participation agreement breach rate reduction period applies to a person under this Part, the person's rate of parenting payment for the reduction period is worked out as follows:

      Method statement
           Step 1. Work out the person's maximum payment rate as follows:

                (a) if the person is not a member of a couple, the person's maximum payment rate will be the sum of the person's maximum basic rate of parenting payment as determined under Module B of the Parenting Payment Rate Calculator in section 1068A and the person's pension supplement as determined under Module BA of the Parenting Payment Rate Calculator in section 1068A;
                (b) if the person is a member of a couple, the person's maximum payment rate is the rate worked out using Module C of the Parenting Payment Rate Calculator in section 1068B.

           Step 2. Work out the rate reduction amount as follows:

                (a) if the participation agreement breach is the person's first breach in the 2 year period:

                (b) if the participation agreement breach is the person's second breach in the 2 year period:

           Step 3. Take the rate reduction amount away from the rate of parenting payment worked out in accordance with the Parenting Payment Rate Calculator in section 1068A or 1068B, as the case may be. The result is the participation agreement breach reduced rate.

Meaning of 2 year period

 (2) In this section:

2 year period means the 2 years immediately before the day after the participation agreement breach.
