The Gas and Electricity Markets Authority (‘the Authority’) hereby gives notice pursuant to Section 8AA(9) of the Gas Act 1986 (as amended) (‘the Act’) as follows:

1.  TrailStone UK Ltd, (company registration number 08510757), the registered office of which is 2 London Wall Place, London, EC2Y 5AU, United Kingdom, has written to the Authority seeking its consent under Section 8AA of the Act  to the transfer of the gas shipper licence granted to TrailStone UK Ltd pursuant to section 7A(2) of the Act to TrailStone Commodity Trading UK Ltd, (company registration number 09351772), the registered office of which is at 2 London Wall Place, London, EC2Y 5AU, United Kingdom.

2.  The Authority proposes to grant consent to the proposed licence transfer which, subject to our consent, is currently proposed to take place on 8 January 2021 for the following reasons:

(i)  TrailStone UK Ltd has applied to the Authority under Section 8AA of the Act for the Authority’s consent to the transfer of its gas shipper licence to TrailStone Commodity Trading UK Ltd and
