“(2) Where payment in respect of a pension is in arrears for any period and any one or more of the following, that is to say—
(a) benefit under the Supplementary Benefits Act 1976, or
(b) income support under the Social Security Act 1986 or under the Income Support (Transitional) Regulations 1987, or
(c) any amount payable under any legislation having effect in Northern Ireland or the Isle of Man which corresponds to benefit under the 1976 Act or, as the case may be, income support under the 1986 Act, or the Income Support (Transitional) Regulations 1987,
has been paid for that period to the person to whom the payment is due, the amount by which the amount of benefit or income support paid (including any corresponding amount mentioned in sub-paragraph (c)), or both if both have been paid, exceeds what would have been paid had the said payment not fallen into arrears shall be deemed to have been an overpayment for the purposes of paragraph (1), and in the case where benefit or income support or both has been paid under legislation in force in Northern Ireland or the Isle of Man it shall for the purpose of that paragraph be repayable to the authority administering the benefit or as the case may be income support.”
