128. Employers considered to be one and the same employer for the purposes of retrospective adjustment of the assessment for a given year must provide, prior to 1 June of the following year, a report from an independent auditor attesting to the composition of the group, to the parent company or partnership’s control of its subsidiaries during the assessment year, and to any change in the group having occurred during that year.
Despite the first paragraph of section 123, failure to file the report by an independent auditor within the prescribed time limit leads to the revocation of the application submitted under section 119.
A group of employers that qualifies for the retroactive adjustment of the assessment pursuant to an application submitted under section 119 and that ceases to qualify because of a failure to file the report by an independent auditor within the prescribed time limit may not submit a new application under that section before the expiry of a 5-year period from the assessment year in which the application was revoked. If an application has already been accepted by the Commission for another assessment year within that period, that application is also revoked.
