1. General—(a) The department does not undertake to refund money or to make allowance
   in respect of any ticket, pass, or symbol which has been lost, mislaid, mutilated, or defaced,
   except as otherwise provided.
   (b) When a ticket is purchased and found to be not required, or cannot be used, a refund of
   the fare paid may be allowed, provided the ticket with application is lodged with the department before the expiry of the period for which such ticket is available.
   (c) When a passenger is unable to complete the journey for which a ticket has been purchased,
   a refund may be allowed by the department for the portion of the journey not travelled,
   provided the ticket with application for refund is lodged with the department before the expiry of the period for which it is available.

2. Season Tickets—No refunds will be made on monthly season tickets (section 14) surrendered to the department during their currency.

3. Commission—Where a ticket or the unused portion of a ticket is surrendered to the
   department and a refund of the value of the ticket or the unused portion of a ticket is applied for
   a deduction of 10 percent (minimum refund 25c, maximum commission $2, per transaction)
   may be made on all sums payable by the department by way of refund.
   When a ticket has been issued under the bulk travel voucher system and an unused portion
   of that ticket is presented for refund, 10 percent of the unused mileage may be deducted before crediting mileage to the relevant bulk travel voucher book; maximum deduction for such a refund will be 150 miles.
