(5)Where the panel appointed under section 35 to determine an application or, as the case may be, the review panel appointed under section 55 to conduct a review considers it appropriate, the panel need not deduct under section 42(4) a relevant payment to which the applicant or, as the case may be, the person in respect of whom the application is made, has only an entitlement.
(6)A relevant payment which is a payment under the advance payment scheme is not to be adjusted in accordance with section 42(5).
