Non‑compliance with request

(b) the claimant is subject to a request under section 57A (bank account details); and
(c) the claimant does not comply with the request within 28 days of the request being made;
then, subject to subsection (2), the consequence in subsection (3) applies.
Exemption from consequence in subsection (3)
(2) The Secretary may determine that the consequence in subsection (3) does not apply if the Secretary considers that it is appropriate to exempt the claimant from the consequence.
Variation of determination
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), the consequence is that the Secretary may vary the determination so that it has the effect that the claimant is not conditionally eligible from the Monday after the end of 28 days following the day the Secretary made the request under section 57A.
Consequence of Secretary later becoming aware of bank account details
(4) If:
(a) under subsection (3), the Secretary varies the determination; and
(b) the Secretary finds out the bank account details of the claimant concerned before the end of the income year following the one in which the variation took effect;
