Section 6 Fraudulent actions by benefit recipients; bureau of special investigations; restitution
Section 6.

Such regulations shall provide for consideration of the willingness of the recipient to make restitution or to submit to voluntary recoupment and shall include guidelines and procedures for administrative action and recoupment. The fraudulent claims commission shall promulgate said regulations in accordance with section two of chapter thirty A and after consultation with agencies as to how the financial solvency and the maintenance of the integrity of their programs can be best served by restitution and referrals.
