If the deferral is paid, what refund is available?

Paying the deferral finishes the deferred arrangement and allows the funds that were held or credited as part of the deferral to be returned. In most treasurer contexts, once the deferral is paid, the entity can issue a refund of the deferral amount (subject to any stated processing rules or deductions). That’s why the statement is true: a refund is available when the deferral is paid. The option about interest would only apply if the policy explicitly provides for interest on refunds, and saying no refund would contradict the standard practice that settling the deferral triggers a return of the funds.
