14 Variation of entry - new nominated support person
(1) If the Register operator receives an application to nominate a new nominated support person made in accordance with section 7, the Register operator is authorised to vary the registered individual’s entry by including:
(a) a statement to the effect that another individual is a nominated support person of the registered individual; and
(b) the email address of the other individual nominated to be a nominated support person of the registered individual. Note: The Register operator must not vary an entry if doing so would result in the registered individual having more than 5 nominated support persons: see subsection 61JI(6) of the Act.
(2) If an entry is varied under subsection (1), the Register operator must notify the other individual of:
(a) the information that has been included in the registered individual’s entry that relates to that other individual; and
(b) the duration of the registered individual’s self-exclusion period.
Note: Where the Register operator collects personal information about an individual it is required to notify or make the individual aware of certain matters relating to the collection of personal information in accordance with Australian Privacy Principle 5 in Schedule 1 to the Privacy Act 1988.
(3) The Register operator must notify the other individual under subsection (2) as soon as practicable after the relevant individual becomes a nominated support person of the registered individual. Note: Where an entry has been varied under subsection 14(1) of these Rules, subsection 61JI(2) of the Act provides that the Register operator must notify: (a) the relevant individual that they have become a nominated support person of the registered individual; and (b) do so as soon as practicable after the relevant individual becomes a nominated support person of the registered individual. (4) If an entry is varied under subsection (1), the Register operator must notify the registered individual that their entry has been varied to include the new nominated support person as soon as practicable after varying the entry.
