14  Giving notice under both sections 13 and 13A
        (1) The Commissioner will approve forms of notice for registered NDIS providers to notify the Commissioner of changes or events as required under section 13 and 13A of the NDIS Provider Registration and Practice Standards Rules.  Direct updates of the Commission System by registered NDIS providers of their contact and other details are approved forms of notice.
        (2)  A single change affecting a registered NDIS provider may require the provider to give notice to the Commissioner under both sections 13 and 13A of the NDIS Provider Registration and Practice Standards Rules.

Example 3
Provider B decides to cease providing high intensity daily personal activities, a class of supports for which it is registered to provide, in New South Wales. Provider B will continue to provide a limited service to participants located in South Australia.
Provider B is required to give notice of the change in locations at which it provides the supports under subsection 13(1)(b) of the NDIS Provider Registration and Practice Standards Rules. Notice is required to be given as soon as practicable after the provider becomes aware that the change will occur or when the change occurs, whichever is the earlier.
The cessation of those supports by Provider B in New South Wales will adversely affect the ability of the provider's existing participants in New South Wales to access its services.
Provider B is therefore also required to give notice under paragraph 13A(1)(b) of the NDIS Provider Registration and Practice Standards Rules as soon as practicable after the change occurs (but could give notice earlier than this where it is aware that the change will occur).
