If someone owes money under this Act and is about to receive a payment from another person (such as an employer), the Minister can order that third party to send some or all of that money directly to the government instead. This applies to wages and other payments, and the person paying is protected from any legal claim for following the Minister's order.
(1)If the Minister is of the opinion that a person is or is about to become liable to make a payment to a person liable to make a payment under this Act, the Minister may, by written notice, order the first person to pay to the Receiver General, on account of the second person’s liability, all or part of the money otherwise payable to the second person.
(3)The receipt of the Minister is a good and sufficient discharge of the original liability to the extent of the payment.
(4)The regulations may provide for any matter relating to the application of this section.
