Section 143 – Amount payable
977.Subsection (1) requires Monitor to calculate the amount each provider is to pay under the levy; and to notify the provider of that amount and when it will become payable for each financial year the levy is imposed. The amount payable may be pro-rated where the provider’s liability is only for part of the year (subsection (2)). It may also be zero (subsection (3)).
978.Subsections (4) and (5) enable Monitor to adjust the amount payable by a provider at any time, if Monitor judges that the risk of the provider going into special administration has changed since the start of the financial year or since it last adjusted the amount. Monitor may give notice of the proposed adjustment and where it does, it must specify the adjusted amount.
979.Subsections (8) and (9) require Monitor to recalculate the amount payable where a provider requests this, because the provider reasonably believes that the amount has been miscalculated. This provision only applies in relation to amounts payable during the current financial year, not past levies.
980.Subsection (10) specifies that Monitor can recover unpaid levies, including accrued interest, as a civil debt.
