This statutory consultation sets out the proposed modifications to the licence conditions that:
- implement the CMA’s Order on RIIO-2 Appeals;
- address minor snagging issues;
- implement a number of changes that we are proposing in light of lessons learnt operating the RIIO-2 price control to date ,e.g. changing the way Re-openers amend baseline allowances, adding Price Control Deliverables to Re-openers, and amending dates for various processes set out in the Price Control Financial Handbook;
- implement a number of Re-opener decisions, where the policy consultations have already taken place;
- update references to Citizens Advice Scotland to reflect the transfer of functions to Consumer Scotland;
- reflect changes made last year to the cost recovery principles; and
- fix two errors in the Gas Transmission Licence.
This consultation also includes proposed changes under Direction to the Net Zero Pre-construction Work and Small Net Zero Projects Re-opener Governance Document for GDNs and NGGT. We would welcome any responses to the proposed changes as part of this consultation.
