(b) at a later time (in this subsection called the offset time), the company becomes entitled to a tax offset that is attributable, in whole or in part, to so much of the company’s franking deficit tax liability as was discharged by the payment of that amount; and
(c) as a result of a decision to which this Act applies (being a decision made after the offset time), the whole or part of the amount paid by the company is overpaid;
