RP5 Article 17 Modifications to NIEN Transmission and Distribution Licences

Following two consultations on RP5 licence modifications (September 2015 and November 2016), the UR notified the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) of its final proposals for Article 17 modifications on the 8 Feb 2017.  The CMA did not direct the UR not to make the modifications and these have subsequently be made on 12 April 2017 when a copy was provided to NIEN. 

The modifications are as follows:

The UR also consulted on Article 14 modifications which proposed a slightly revised set of proposals in respect of change of law and connections.  We currently expect to publish a decision paper on this later this month.
