##### GM1 ORGH.GEN.130(b) Management of changes *ED Decision 2025/007/R* **CHANGES NOT AFFECTING THE DECLARATION** (a) The intention of point [ORGH.GEN.130](#_DxCrossRefBm752106488)(b) is to also cover changes that are not directly reflected in the declaration but could influence the discharge of the responsibility for the provision of GH services as declared. Such changes — for example, a change to the organisation’s financial structure or human resource procedures, may have an indirect effect on the organisation’s management system, but they do not have to be reported to the competent authority. That is why it is important that they are managed appropriately. (b) GH organisations are not expected to inform the competent authority every time they change their documentation. For example, changes such as amendments to their GH manuals or procedures they follow, or updates to their training programmes, station representatives or GSE maintenance programmes, do not need to be reported to the competent authority. (c) A GH organisation only needs to ensure that the competent authority has the latest version of its documentation, including the items mentioned above, in due time before an inspection or audit.
