On receiving the required documentation, the application will go before a panel of the Tribunal for review. If the panel approves the application, it will direct the Minister to pay you out of the Government of Alberta’s General Revenue Fund.
Usually, the Tribunal directs the Minister to pay the full amount owing, but it has authority to direct the Minister to pay a lower amount.
The amount paid by the Minister and any expenses incurred in collecting the debt becomes a debt owed by the operator to the Crown in accordance with section 36(9)(a) of the Act.
An operator wanting to repay this debt should contact Crown Debt Collections at 780-644-1704.
