There is no one working solely on the collection of overpayments within my Department. Should they arise, overpayments are pursued by the relevant Section of the Department and the recovered amounts are processed by the Accounts Section. In the case of any salary overpayments, recovery arrangements are put in place through the payroll on foot of instructions from Personnel.
