Deciding application for interim assistance
(1) The government assessor may grant the person assistance of up to $6,000 (

general application is decided.

condition on the grant of interim assistance that, if the person receives a
relevant payment for the act of violence before the general application is

imposed if the government assessor grants the applicant assistance.

interim assistance.
