                     (b)  require the debtor to state, in writing, by a time specified in the notice, whether the judgment debt has been satisfied; and

                              (i)  if the judgment debt has been satisfied—to give the paying officer evidence in support of that fact; and

                             (ii)  if the judgment debt has not been satisfied—to state, in writing, the amount due under the judgment at the time the statement is made.

             (3)  If the debtor does not give the paying officer evidence that the judgment debt has been satisfied by the time specified in the notice under subregulation (2), the paying officer must deduct from the debtor’s salary on each pay day for the debtor an amount equal to:

                     (a)  the deduction required under regulation 12I; or

                     (b)  a lesser amount that, in the paying officer’s opinion, is needed to satisfy the balance of the judgment debt.

             (4)  After making the first deduction, the paying officer may only continue to make deductions if the paying officer has no reason to believe that the judgment debt has been discharged.

             (5)  The paying officer must ensure that the amount of each deduction is paid to the judgment creditor.

12F  Administration fee

             (1)  A judgment creditor (other than the Commonwealth) who requests the payment of a judgment debt must pay a fee of $38 for the making of the deductions.

             (2)  The fee is the price of the supply of a service for the purposes of the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999.

             (3)  If a judgment creditor (other than the Commonwealth) requests the payment of a judgment debt, but does not pay the fee when making the request, the paying officer must notify the judgment creditor that:

                     (b)  no deductions will be made unless the fee is paid.

12G  More than one judgment debt

             (1)  If more than one judgment debt exists against a debtor, the paying officer:

                     (a)  must deal with the judgment debts in the order in which the requests for deductions were received; and

                     (b)  must not make a deduction for the purpose of a particular judgment debt until all judgment debts for which earlier requests were made have been satisfied.

             (2)  If the paying officer receives 2 or more requests at the same time for the payment of judgment debts against a debtor, the paying officer must deal with the judgment debts in the order of the dates and times at which judgment was given for each debt, starting with the earliest judgment.

12H  Effect of deductions

                   If an amount is paid to a judgment creditor after a deduction is made from the debtor’s salary on a pay day for the debtor:

                     (a)  an amount equal to that amount is taken to have been paid by the Commonwealth to the debtor on account of salary payable to the debtor on that pay day; and

                     (b)  an amount equal to that amount is taken to have been paid by the debtor to the judgment creditor for the purposes of the judgment debt.

12I  Rate of deductions

             (1)  For paragraph 12E (3) (a), the rate at which a deduction is to be made from the debtor’s net salary on a pay day for the debtor is 20%, unless subregulation (2), (3) or (4) applies.

             (2)  The paying officer may reduce the rate at which deductions are to be made if the paying officer is satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that the debtor:

                     (a)  is suffering serious financial hardship; or

                     (b)  would suffer serious financial hardship if the rate of deduction were not reduced.

             (3)  If the debtor asks the paying officer, in writing, to make deductions at a rate greater than 20% of the debtor’s net salary, the paying officer must comply with the request as soon as practicable.

             (4)  The paying officer must reduce the rate as soon as practicable, but is not required to reduce the rate to less than 20%, if:

                     (a)  deductions are being made at a rate greater than 20% of the debtor’s net salary; and

                     (b)  the debtor asks a paying officer, in writing, to reduce the rate of the deductions.

12J  Administration of deductions

             (1)  A paying officer, in relation to a debtor, may:

                     (a)  require the judgment creditor to confirm that the judgment debt has not been discharged; and

                     (b)  suspend the making of deductions until the paying officer receives the confirmation.

             (2)  If a debtor’s employment with the AFP ceases, or is terminated, for any reason (including the debtor’s death) the paying officer must, as soon as practicable, notify the judgment creditor of the cessation or termination.

12K  Recovery of overpayment

                   If a payment made to a judgment creditor for a judgment debt exceeds the amount due under the judgment, the judgment creditor must repay the excess to the debtor.

                     (b)  it has not been claimed under regulation 29 by the person entitled to possession or by the finder.

             (2)  The Commissioner, if satisfied that the property is suitable for disposal by public auction, may so dispose of it.

Note:          See, for example, the Proceeds of Crime Act 1987.

             (3)  However, if the Commissioner is reasonably satisfied that the person entitled to possession of the property cannot be located or does not want the property:

                     (a)  for liquid property—the property becomes public money within the meaning of the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997; and

                     (b)  for any other property—the Commissioner may, as appropriate, dispose of the property in accordance with subregulation 30 (2) or direct that the property be disposed of in accordance with subregulation 30 (3) or (4) (as if those subregulations applied to the property).

Note for paragraph (a):       See the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997 for how public money is dealt with.
