Section 41 Disposition versions

1999-10-01

41. An independent adult or the members of a family must exercise their rights or avail themselves of other statutory benefits where the exercise of such rights or the receipt of such benefits would affect their eligibility or reduce the amount of the benefit granted to them under the program.

In the case of an adult who is not deemed to receive parental contribution under the second paragraph of section 28, the Minister is subrograted by operation of law in the rights of the adult to have support payments fixed or varied, unless the adult has elected to exercise his or her remedy for support. The Minister may also exercise the rights of any other creditor of support to have support payments fixed or varied if the Minister is of the opinion that the creditor’s circumstances place the exercise of such rights in jeopardy.
