Regulation 13E
of Central Provident Fund (Revised Workfare Income Supplement Scheme) Regulations 2016
Regulation 13E
Additional relevant contribution
Subregulation 1
Instead of making a cash payment under regulation 11(1)(a), 12(1)(a), 13(1)(a) or 13A(a), the Board may credit, to any account of the eligible member in the Fund as the Minister may direct, an additional relevant contribution of an amount equivalent to the value of the cash payment if —
the Board has attempted to make the cash payment by issuing a cheque to the member;
the Board has notified the member of the issue of the cheque; and
the member fails to encash the cheque before the cheque expires.
Subregulation 2
To avoid doubt, where regulation 13F(2) or (4) applies to any cash payments to be paid to any one member in a particular month, paragraph (1) applies to those cash payments as if the reference to the value of the cash payment were a reference to the total amount to be paid under regulation 13F(2) or (4) (as the case may be) in respect of those cash payments.
