[41B  Repayment of overpaid child support maintenance]

[(1)     This section applies where it appears to the [Secretary of State] that an absent parent [a non-resident parent] has made a payment by way of child support maintenance which amounts to an overpayment by him of that maintenance and that—

(a)     it would not be possible for the absent parent [non-resident parent] to recover the amount of the overpayment by way of an adjustment of the amount payable under a maintenance assessment [maintenance calculation]; or

(b)     it would be inappropriate to rely on an adjustment of the amount payable under a maintenance assessment [maintenance calculation] as the means of enabling the absent parent [non-resident parent] to recover the amount of the overpayment.
