(2) The amount of the share must be worked out using the formula in subsection (3) and, if the result of the formula is not a whole number of cents, rounded up to the next whole number of cents. (3) The formula is as follows: Start formula Amount of the component times start fraction The institution's gross liability amount worked out under step 2 of the redress payment method statement for the person over Total of gross liability amounts of all responsible institutions worked out under step 2 of the redress payment method statement for the person end fraction end formula
