13. An individual or a family shall repay the social aid received while awaiting the exercise of a right, up to the sums of money or the value of the property received, whether or not the individual or family is receiving social aid at the time of the event that gives rise to the exercise of the right.
Unless the Minister has elected to be subrogated to the rights of the individual or family, the first paragraph applies of right from the date of the event giving rise to the exercise of the right to the date it is exercised, whether or not it is a personal right.

13. A person may receive social aid pending payment of a sum that is to accrue to him from the exercise of a right, including the execution of a judgment, or from the winding-up of a business, if he is otherwise eligible for social aid.
He then assumes the obligation to repay the amount of the aid so granted to him, up to the sums of money or the value of the property he is to receive, unless the Minister has elected to be subrogated in the rights of such person up to the amount of such sums and the value of such property.
