                              (i)  the nature of the activities carried on through the branch; or

                             (ii)  the location of the branch; and

                     (c)  is referred to in the entity's records to the effect that it is to be treated as a separate entity for the purposes of the GST law.

                     (a)  the choice ceases to have effect; or

                     (b)  the branch ceases to meet the requirements of paragraphs (1)(a), (b) and (c).
