S-2.4 - Act respecting civil protection to promote disaster resilience

Section 78 Disposition versions

2024-05-28

78. A recipient of financial assistance or compensation must repay to the Minister any amount received without entitlement, unless it was paid as a result of an administrative error which the recipient could not reasonably have discovered. Such an amount may be recovered within three years after it becomes recoverable or, in a case of bad faith, within three years after discovery of the fact, but not later than 15 years after it becomes recoverable.

Despite the second paragraph of section 75, the amount that the recipient must repay may be deducted from any financial assistance or compensation to which the recipient would subsequently be entitled.
