What\u2019s the impact?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Companies should expect improved procedures and processes overall with the new application features especially with the introduction of online applications for cancellation of passes and transfer of endorsements. However, as these new features will only take effect from 1 Jun 2019 onwards, we expect to learn more about them in detail when the time comes.<\/p>\n
