I agree with Kevin, but there is one additional instance in which a new record will be needed: if the name of an intervening body in a hierarchy changes, and as a result of that change a *different* body within the hierarchy becomes the lowest element in the hierarchy that is entered under its own name, then a new record will need to be created. 

For example:

110 $a Parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah
410 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body with old name that INCLUDES a Type 1 or 2 term. $b Committee on blah-blah
510 $a Subdivision of parent body with new name that LACKS a Type 1 or 2 term. $b Committee on blah-blah $b

110 $a Subdivision of parent body with new name that LACKS a Type 1 or 2 term. $b Committee on blah-blah 
510 $a Parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah $a

The classic example is the Cataloging and Classification Section; when RTSD changed its name to ALCTS, a new record was needed for the name of the section, even though the actual administrative hierarchy had not changed.

n  82032995
110 2_ American Library Association. ǂb Cataloging and Classification Section
410 2_ American Library Association. ǂb Resources and Technical Services Division. ǂb Cataloging and Classification Section
510 2_ Association for Library Collections & Technical Services. ǂb Cataloging and Classification Section ǂw b

n  95000007
110 2_ Association for Library Collections & Technical Services. ǂb Cataloging and Classification Section
410 2_ American Library Association. ǂb Cataloging and Classification Section ǂw a

Note that the Association for Library Collections & Technical Services still considers itself a division of the American Library Association, although the word "Division" no longer appears in its name:

"The Association for Library Collections & Technical Services (ALCTS) has been a division of the American Library Association since 1957, when the Resources and Technical Services Division (RTSD) was formed from the merger of several ALA units with common interests. In 1989, the membership of RTSD voted to change the name of the division to ALCTS." --from "The History of ALCTS" at: http://www.ala.org/alcts/about/misshist/history

Subject: Re: [PCCLIST] When the intervening element in the hierarchy of a corporate body changes its name

If "Committee on blah-blah" does not need to have the name of the intervening body *in the heading*, then a change in name of the intervening body requires only an additional reference.  There is no change in heading for the committee.  The "before" record will have:

	110 $a Parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah
	410 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah

The "after" record will have:

	110 $a Parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah
	410 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah
	410 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body after it's changed its name. $b Committee on blah-blah

But, if "Committee on blah-blah" needs to be established under the intervening body because another sub-body of the parent has used, or is likely to have used, the same committee name, the "before" record will have:

	110 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah

After the intervening body has changed its name, a new record must be created, and the "after" records will have:

	110 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah
	510 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body after it's changed its name. $b Committee on blah-blah $w b

	110 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body after it's changed its name. $b Committee on blah-blah
	510 $a Parent body. $b Subdivision of parent body. $b Committee on blah-blah $w a

Hope this helps.
