On 14th April 2016, we received a plan developed by all NEMOs setting out how the Market Coupling Operator (MCO) functions will be jointly set up and performed, in accordance with Article 7(3) of the guideline on Capacity Allocation and Congestion Management (CACM). The plan was submitted to us by the two NEMOs designated in Great Britain (GB), APX Commodities Ltd and Nord Pool Spot.

This letter sets out our decision to request an amendment to the plan and outlines the necessary next steps that must be taken. The reasons for our decision can be found in the opinion agreed by all National Regulatory Authorities which is attached as the Annex.
