32H When fund ceases to be a chosen fund
(1) A fund (the old fund) ceases to be a chosen fund for an employee if: (a) there is another fund that is a chosen fund for the employee; and (b) neither the employee nor the Commissioner has given the employer a written notice stating that the old fund continues to be a chosen fund for the employee. (1A) The employee may give the employer a written notice, or give the Commissioner a notice in the approved form, stating that the old fund continues to be a chosen fund for the employee. (2) A fund also ceases to be a chosen fund if the employee requests the employer, under subsection 32N(3), to give him or her a standard choice form and the employer does not do this by the time specified in that subsection. (3) A fund also ceases to be a chosen fund if it is impossible for the employer to contribute on behalf of the employee to the chosen fund. This may occur immediately after the fund becomes a chosen fund for the employee.
Note: Example: The chosen fund is closed to new members or ceases to accept further contributions.
(4) A fund also ceases to be a chosen fund if the fund ceases to be an eligible choice fund for the employer. This may occur immediately after the fund becomes a chosen fund for the employee.
