48. The Minister may, by written notice, require a person who, by virtue of an existing obligation, is or will be bound to make a payment to a person owing an amount under this Act, that he pay to the Minister all or part of the amount to be paid to his creditor, such payment to be made at the time at which the amount becomes payable to his creditor.
The same applies in the case of a payment to be made to a creditor holding a security furnished by a person owing an amount under this Act or to the assignee of a claim assigned by such person where the payment would, but for the security or assignment of claim, be made to that person.
