In October 2016 we conducted a statutory consultation on proposed changes to Standard Special Condition A15 (Agency) of the Gas Transporters licences and the introduction of a new Standard Special Condition (SSC) A15A (Central Data Service Provider). We previously consulted on an informal basis in December 2015 and again in April 2016 to give the industry an early sight of the proposed changes and to seek views.
These changes to the Gas Transporters licences are required in order to implement the outcome of Ofgem’s review of Xoserve’s finance, governance and ownership (FGO) arrangements.
Following consideration of responses to the consultation, we have decided to proceed with making these licence changes. Licence modification decision notices have been published alongside this decision letter.
