(b)any benefit payable under the legislation of any member State, other than the United Kingdom, concerning the branches of social security mentioned in article 4(1) of Regulation (EEC) No. 1408/71(1) on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community, whether or not the benefit has been acquired by virtue of the provisions of that Regulation.
(2) Where the Secretary of State is satisfied that—
(a)recoverable excess benefit has been allowed in consequence of a misrepresentation of or failure to disclose a material fact (in either case whether fraudulent or otherwise), by a claimant or any other person to whom council tax benefit has been allowed; and
(b)the person who misrepresented that fact or failed to disclose it is receiving a sufficient amount of one or more of the benefits prescribed in paragraph (1) to enable deductions to be made for the recovery of the excess,
he shall, if requested to do so by an appropriate authority under regulation 87 (methods of recovery) recover the excess by deduction from any of those benefits.
