the insurer for the internal review and authorisation of the information.  It is the responsibility of the board and senior management of the insurer to ensure that an appropriate set of policies and procedures for the authorisation of data provided to APRA is in place.

Authorisation

    12.         Fujitsu Australia (as agent of APRA) will provide each insurer with a customer identification number.  If an insurer proposes to submit information required by this Reporting Standard using the method in paragraph 9 (i.e. via the website), the insurer must apply for a password by viewing the web page referred to in paragraph 9, quoting the insurer's customer identification number and following the instructions for applying for a password on that page.  Fujitsu Australia will advise the insurer's Chief Financial Officer of the password for the insurer.  When information is provided using the method in paragraph 9, the insurer will be required to quote its customer identification number and password.  Upon successful validation of the customer identification and password a secure session between the insurer and Fujitsu Australia will be created and information will be encrypted before transmission.

    13.         Despite paragraph 12, or where APRA has made a determination under subparagraphs 10(a) or (b) specifying an alternate method of submission, APRA may also determine in writing that:

       (a)          a specified person (who need not be the Principal Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the insurer);

       (b)          a person holding a specified position (which need not be the position of Principal Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the insurer); or

       (c)          a person authorised by the insurer to use the insurer's customer identification number and password,

   may, or must, authorise (in a manner specified) information provided by the insurer under this Reporting Standard.

Minor alterations to forms and instructions

    14.         APRA may:

       (a)          make minor variations to GRF 800.3 (either generally, or in relation to a class of insurers, or in relation to a particular insurer) to correct technical, programming or logical errors, inconsistencies or anomalies;

       (b)          vary, omit or substitute (either generally, or in relation to a class of insurers, or in relation to a particular insurer) an occupation code or description in Appendix A to GRF 800.3, if APRA forms the view that the existing code or description is inappropriate having regard to the circumstances or business of each relevant insurer and any other relevant considerations; or

       (c)          vary, omit or substitute (either generally, or in relation to a class of insurers, or in relation to a particular insurer) a specification in a Table in GRF 800.3, if APRA forms the view that the specification is inappropriate having regard to the circumstances or business of each relevant insurer and any
