#### 35 Notice of effect of section 59 of the Act
(1) This section is for the purposes of subsection 59(5) of the Act.
> Note: Section 59 of the Act applies if an applicant for redress dies after being given an offer of redress but before the offer is accepted, declined or withdrawn. That section provides that the redress payment is payable under section 60 of the Act.
(2) If subsection 59(3) of the Act applies, the Operator must give written notice to each person the Operator determines under section 60 of the Act should be paid the redress payment, stating the amount of the redress payment to be paid to the person.
(3) If subsection 59(4) of the Act applies because an application for review of a determination of an application for redress had been made but the review had not been completed, the Operator must give written notice of the outcome of the review to the person (or persons) the Operator considers most appropriate.
(4) The notice under subsection (3) must state:
(a) the outcome of the review (including, if relevant, the fact that the redress payment is payable in accordance with section 60 of the Act and each person to whom the payment is to be made under that section); and
(b) the reasons for that outcome.
> Note: If the outcome is that the determination is varied or substituted, section 79 of the Act requires each participating institution, partly‑participating institution, funder of last resort or representative for a participating group specified in the determination, as varied or substituted, to be given notice of that fact.
