53 Orders for restitution to be subject to appeals against relevant awards of statutory compensation

(1) An order for restitution does not have any effect:

(a) until the period within which an appeal may be made against the award of statutory compensation from which it arises, or to which it relates, has expired, or

(b) if such an appeal is duly made within that period, until the appeal is finally disposed of.

(2) If the award of statutory compensation to which such an appeal relates is set aside or varied as a result of the appeal, the order for restitution ceases to have effect.

(3) In the event that the award is varied, a new provisional order for restitution may be made in accordance with this Division as if the original order had not been made.
