9.8 When can a “deemed approved plan” be amended or a new plan developed?

Part II of the Act provides that deemed approved plans may be amended where there has been “changed circumstances” [14.1, 14.2].

Part II also provides that a new plan may be developed where a “sale of business” has occurred [13.1].

These two sections outline the procedure to be followed when either of these situations arise.
