324  Varying or revoking an income determination

Decision to vary or revoke income determination

 (1) The System Governor may vary or revoke an income determination in relation to the individual.

Note 1: For requirements about giving notice of a variation or revocation of an income determination, see section 328.

Note 2: The amount of person‑centred subsidy or provider‑based subsidy payable for a day for an individual is calculated in accordance with any income determination in force for the individual for the day. If there is such an income determination, the amount payable will not change as a result of a change to the individual’s income unless the income determination is varied or revoked or a new income determination is made.

 (2) The income determination may be varied or revoked:

 (b) on the application of the individual (see section 326); or

 (c) on the System Governor’s own initiative (see section 327).

 (2A) The income determination must be varied if the System Governor has been notified of the occurrence of an event or a change in the individual’s circumstances under Subdivision D (see also section 325).

 (3) Without limiting subsection (1), the income determination may be revoked if the System Governor is satisfied that the determination is incorrect.

 (3A) This section does not limit the application of subsection 33(3) of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 in relation to an income determination.

 (4) If an income determination is varied or revoked, the variation or revocation takes effect on the day specified by the System Governor in the notice under subsection 328(1).

 (5) The day specified may be before the day the notice is given but must be in accordance with the rules.

Variations and revocations not legislative instruments

 (6) If a variation or revocation under subsection (1) is in writing, it is not a legislative instrument.
