Family and Community Services and Veterans' Affairs Legislation Amendment (2004 Election Commitments) Act 2004 (132 of 2004)
Schedule 4 Special child care benefit rate for grandparents on income support
A New Tax System (Family Assistance) (Administration) Act 1999
42 Subsection 219A(2) (table item 10, at the end of column 2)
Add:
; (f) if the review decision affects eligibility for the special grandparent rate for a child: (i) calculate the amount of the fee reductions in respect of the individual, the child and the session on the basis of the varied or substituted decision; and (ii) reduce the fees to be paid for the session by the amount; and (iii) charge only the reduced fees (if any) for the session. If paragraph (f) applies and the effect of the varied or substituted decision is that the individual is eligible for the special grandparent rate for the child, the service has an additional obligation in relation to the level of fees set for a session for which the service reduces fees under that paragraph. That obligation is to ensure that those fees do not exceed the amount of the fees that the service would charge an individual who was not eligible for the special grandparent rate for the same session for the same child. |
