In addition to the conditions specified in any other provision of this Act:
(a) payment of an amount to a State under this Act is subject to the condition that, if the Minister informs the Treasurer of the State that he is satisfied that the State has failed, with respect to that amount, to fulfil the condition specified by subsection 23(1), the State will repay the amount, or such part of the amount as the Minister specifies, to the Commonwealth; and
(b) the grant of financial assistance to a State in accordance with this Act is subject to the condition that, if the sum of the amounts paid to a State by way of financial assistance under this Act in respect of a year to which this Act applies has not been expended, or otherwise dealt with, in accordance with this Act, the State shall, on demand by the Minister for Finance, pay to the Commonwealth an amount specified by the Minister for Finance being an amount not greater than so much of the sum of those amounts as has not been so expended or otherwise dealt with.
