9AN Travelling expenses to multiple locations within the same town or city

Despite regulations 9, 9AD and 9AE, if a person who is entitled to be paid travelling expenses under section 110, 132, 170B, 196ZO or 196ZQ of the Act travels to more than 1 location in the same city or town for a purpose or purposes referred to in section 110, 132, 170B, 196ZO or 196ZQ of the Act, the amount of travelling expenses that that person is entitled to be paid is: (a) the greatest amount payable under section 110, 132, 170B, 196ZO or 196ZQ of the Act for travel to the city or town; and (b) the greatest amount payable under section 110, 132, 170B, 196ZO or 196ZQ of the Act for travel between each location within that city or town.

Note: For example, a person who travels to a medical practice in a city for treatment, and then goes to another location in the same city for a medical examination before returning home, will only be paid once for the return travel to the city, and once for the travel from the medical practice to the other location (being the greatest amount of travelling expenses payable under section 110, 132, 170B, 196ZO or 196ZQ of the Act for that travel).
