### sec.113 Assignment of appointment This section applies if— a property agent who holds an appointment, under section 102 , from a client to perform a service or services for the client assigns the appointment to another property agent ( assignee ); or a resident letting agent who holds appointments, under section 102 , from clients to perform a service or services for the clients for a building complex assigns the appointments to another person who becomes the resident letting agent for the complex (also an assignee ). The assignee must give each client written notice of the assignment within 14 days after the assignment. Maximum penalty—100 penalty units. The notice must state the following— the assignee’s name and contact details; the address of the assignee’s registered office; the appointment has been assigned without changing the terms of the appointment; the appointment may be revoked by the client by giving at least 30 days written notice of the revocation to the assignee, unless the client and the assignee agree, in writing, to an earlier day for the appointment to end. The appointment is taken, for section 102 , to be an appointment by the client of the proposed assignee and to continue to have effect according to its terms. To remove any doubt, it is declared that the assignment of an appointment under this section does not authorise the assignee to vary the terms of the appointment without the client’s agreement.
