The subsidiary documents set out the proposed changes against the up to date version of the consolidated licence conditions available on our website at the time of publishing, the definitive sources for which (not including the changes proposed in this consultation) are available on the Electronic Public Register.

We would also welcome responses from any other interested stakeholders and the public, although areas of this consultation are technical in nature and might require a degree of specialist knowledge around the detail of energy licence conditions and retail codes framework in order to fully engage.
