2If the company name and registration number change, all technicians employed by such a company must go through the entire re-registration process as above, as if for a new company [wpdm_package id=’964′]
3If the company’s previous permit was cancelled and thus their technicians de-registered, they would need to go through the entire re-registration process as above, for a “new” company.
