(2) Without prejudice to any statutory provision to the contrary, any compensation payable under this Part—
(a)shall be payable to or in trust for the person entitled to receive the compensation; and
(b)shall not be assignable or chargeable with his debts or other liabilities.
(3) Where any compensation under this Part is paid in error to any person (including an overpayment)—
(a)he shall as soon as practicable repay it to the paying authority; and
(b)the paying authority may recover it from him (including, but without prejudice to any other means of recovery, by deducting it from any compensation payable to or in respect of him under this Part).
(4) In this regulation “the paying authority” means the authority who, in accordance with regulation 31, pay the compensation.
