Such notice shall include a final accounting of the refund which was set off, including the amount of the refund to which the debtor was entitled prior to setoff, the amount of the debt due and owing, the amount of the refund in excess of the debt which has been returned to the debtor by the commission pursuant to subsection (2) of Section 27-7-509, and the amount of the funds transferred to the claimant agency pursuant to subsection (2) of Section 27-7-509 in excess of the debt determined to be due and owing at a hearing held pursuant to Section 27-7-511, if such a hearing was held. At such time, the claimant agency shall refund to the debtor the amount of the claimed debt originally certified and transferred to it by the commission in excess of the amount of the debt finally found to be due and owing.
