If there is a change in the responsible person for compliance in an investigative project, when must the license holder notify the Board?

The requirement for notifying the Board within five working days after a change in the responsible person for compliance in an investigative project is based on the need for timely communication regarding personnel changes that could impact compliance oversight. This prompt notification helps ensure that the Board maintains up-to-date information about the individuals responsible for overseeing compliance and regulatory obligations.

By requiring notification within a relatively short timeframe, the regulation promotes accountability and allows the Board to assess the qualifications and suitability of the new responsible person to ensure that the investigative project's compliance is not compromised. This approach is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the regulatory framework and assuring that all parties involved adhere to established standards and practices.

Longer timeframes for notification might lead to lapses in compliance or oversight, which is why a five-day window is specified, striking a balance between allowing enough time for the license holder to inform the Board while ensuring that communication remains swift and effective.
