Resumo Omnilex

The case concerns a beneficiary of housing support who failed to notify the OLS of an increase in income. The authority issued a retroactive surcharge decision. The court held that, under RLGL.11 al. 3, the omission of the mandatory notification justified the retroactive surcharge, and the decision was upheld.
