On 6 March 2020, the Joint Office of Gas Transporters (“JO”) received a request from National Grid Gas Transmission that Uniform Network Code modification UNC718 ‘Introduction of a Conditional Discount for Avoiding Inefficient Bypass of the NTS’ should be treated as ‘urgent’ and proceed under a timetable approved by Ofgem. Three more proposals (UNC718A/B/C) were submitted to the JO on the same day. We have decided we cannot consider the application for urgent status for UNC718/A/B/C. We set out our reasons in our letter.
