1.1. Where provisions of the first paragraph of section 516 of the Act respecting health services and social services (chapter S-4.2) are violated, the Minister may reduce, refuse or cease to grant an exemption by including in its calculation, the value of the rights, property or liquid assets on the date of renunciation, alienation or squandering, after subtracting the consideration received and, for each month that has passed since that date and during a period of no more than 2 years, the amount corresponding to the monthly subtraction set out in section 175 of the Individual and Family Assistance Regulation (chapter A-13.1.1, r. 1).
