A NEW TAX SYSTEM (FAMILY ASSISTANCE) (ADMINISTRATION) ACT 1999 - SECT 72

Circumstances in which maternity allowance or maternity immunisation allowance not recoverable
Section 71 does not apply in relation to a payment to a person of maternity allowance or maternity immunisation allowance for which the person was not entitled if the person's lack of entitlement for the allowance resulted from the person's Part A rate of family tax benefit being nil and either:

(a)
the person's nil Part A rate resulted from an event or change in circumstances that occurred after the payment of maternity allowance or maternity immunisation allowance was made; or

(b)
the following subparagraphs apply:

(i)
the person's nil Part A rate resulted from the amount of the person's adjusted taxable income for the relevant income year;
(ii)
maternity allowance or maternity immunisation allowance was made on the basis of a determination of the person's Part A rate that was based on an incorrect estimate by the person of an income component of the person's adjusted taxable income;
(iii)
at the time when the estimate was made the person did not know, and had no reason to suspect, that the estimate was incorrect.
