Explanatory Note
This note is not part of the instrument but is intended to indicate its general effect.
This instrument comes into force on 31 July 2015. It amends the Ministerial Direction on Debt Recovery under the Social Security Act. The effect of this instrument is to make changes to the requirements for issuing deduction notices. The number of written notices that must be sent to an unresponsive debtor before a deduction notice may be issued is reduced from 3 to 2 (the overall timeframe, from the date when the first written notice is sent and the date when a deduction notice may be issued, is also reduced by one week). The requirements for determining the amount of the lump sum or instalments are reworded, to make it clearer that the chief executive is not required to recheck the debtor's bank balances and outgoings every time an instalment is deducted. The consent of the debtor required to waive the application of clause 6(2) to (6) to the issue of a deduction notice is also amended to include an oral consent that the Ministry of Social Development has confirmed in writing.
