1224A  Debts relating to low income supplements or essential medical equipment payments

 (1) This section applies if:
 (a) an individual has been paid:
 (i) a low income supplement; or
 (ii) an essential medical equipment payment;
  because of a determination made under Part 3 of the Administration Act; and
 (b) after the payment was made to the individual, the determination is or was (however described) changed, revoked, set aside, or superseded by another determination; and
 (c) the decision to change, revoke, set aside or supersede the determination is or was made wholly or partly because the individual knowingly made a false or misleading statement, or knowingly provided false information; and
 (d) apart from that statement or information, the payment would not have been paid.

 (2) An amount equal to the payment is a debt due to the Commonwealth by the individual.

 (3) Apart from section 1224AA, the other provisions of this Part under which debts arise do not apply in relation to payments to which this section applies.
