I do not accept this amendment because the provision of section 15(a) already provides that the scheme administrator will give the applicant notice in writing, as well as the reasons for the decision. In the case of a decision indicating that an award is to be made, a calculation of how the amount of the award was determined will also be provided. In turn, this will reduce the number of appeals and will help to assist the applicant as to how the determination of repayment was arrived at.
