 (b) the Secretary reconsiders the decision; and
 (c) as a result of the reconsideration, the Secretary is satisfied that, because of the decision, the rate at which social security payment is being, or has been, paid is less than the rate provided for by the social security law;
the Secretary must determine that the rate is to be increased to the rate provided for by the social security law.
