24F  Top‑up payments of clean energy advance

Work out adjusted amount if circumstances change

 (1) If:
 (a) the Secretary pays a clean energy advance (the original payment) to the recipient; and
 (b) the recipient's circumstances change on a day (the change day) before the end of the recipient's clean energy advance period;
work out an amount under subsection (3). However, if this section has previously applied to the recipient, work out an amount under subsection (4).

When a top‑up is payable

 (2) If the total of:
 (a) the original payment; and
 (b) any previous payments under this subsection;
falls short of the amount worked out under subsection (3) or (4) (as applicable), the recipient is qualified for a further payment of clean energy advance equal to the amount of the shortfall.

Note: The advance will be paid in a lump sum as soon as is reasonably practicable (see subsection 25(4) and section 26C).

Adjusted amount for the earliest change day

 (3) For the purposes of subsection (1), round up to the nearest multiple of $10 the result of the formula:
where:

first pro‑rata amount means the amount that would be the result of the formula set out in subsection 24C(2) if:
 (a) the advance qualification day were the change day; and
 (b) if the change day is specified in a determination, for the recipient, under subsection 8G(2) because of subsection 8G(3):
 (i) the recipient's clean energy advance period were worked out by reference to the qualification resulting from that determination; and
 (ii) the reference in subsection 24D(1) to the decision day were a reference to the change day.

Note: Paragraph (b) only applies if the recipient qualifies a second time for a clean energy advance, this time under section 8G (whereas the recipient qualified for the original payment under section 8H).

original pro‑rata amount means the amount that would be the result of the formula set out in subsection 24C(2) if the recipient's number of advance days did not include days on or after the change day.

Note: The formula set out in subsection 24C(2) does not include the rounding mentioned in that subsection.

Adjusted amount for later change days

 (4) For the purposes of subsection (1), round up to the nearest multiple of $10 the sum of the following:
 (a) the original pro‑rata amount worked out under subsection (3) for the earliest change day;
 (b) the first pro‑rata amount worked out under subsection (3) for the earliest change day but as if the number of advance days did not include days on or after the next change day;
 (c) the amount for each change day later than the earliest worked out in a way corresponding to the way the
