(ii) the nominee becomes aware that an event or change of circumstances is likely to occur; and


(b) the event or change of circumstances is likely to affect:


(i) the ability of the nominee to act as the payment nominee or correspondence nominee of the person, as the case may be; or

Subject to subsection (3), a notice under subsection (1):


(a) must be in writing; and


(b) may be given personally or by post or by any other means approved by the Secretary; and


(c) must specify how the nominee is to give the information to the Department; and


(d) must specify the period within which the nominee is to give the information to the Department.
