Gas and Electricity Supply Licences. Proposals for Standard Non-discrimination Licence Conditions.

This document reviews the non-discrimination conditions in the gas and electricity suppliers licences. It proposes that the best way to better co-ordinate gas and electricity regulation, to protect the interests of consumers and promote effective competition in gas and electricity retail supply markets is through the removal of the non-discrimination licence conditions, and reliance on the provisions of the Competition Act 1998 to address anti-competitive behaviour.
