         Note 3 An example of an amount that is allowed to be credited to the special account under paragraph 7(a) or (b) is an amount paid to the Commonwealth by family in Australia of an Australian citizen or permanent resident who is overseas, for subsequent payment to that person overseas by the Commonwealth in the circumstances covered by paragraph 8(a).
