Why am I not surprised?
I ran into an overpayment recently that had been overturned; most of it had already been offset against arrears before a favourable revision and it became blatantly obvious that there was no robust procedure in place to reimburse the offended party.
So I got curious and asked DWP, sadly their reply did not surprise me; there are no processes downstream of a section 74 offset to make sure they don’t overrecover, or reimburse monies already recovered, is what I take from this.
Quelle surprise!
