Article 24 Set-off of overpayments on account of allowances

Where any person has received any sum under a scheme made under section 2 of the Act to which, by virtue of any provisions of such scheme he was disentitled by reason of his being entitled in respect of the same period to an allowance under this scheme subsequently awarded, and there has not been a requirement to repay that sum (hereafter referred to as “the overpayment”) to the F1Secretary of State, then the rate of the allowance, which would apart from this provision be payable for any week in that period, shall be reduced by the overpayment made in respect of that week.
