Utility may impose gas restriction measures
10 Utility may impose gas restriction measures
A utility may, in writing, impose gas restriction measures under a gas restriction scheme in force under section 9.
Note A power given under an Act to make a statutory instrument includes the power to amend or repeal the instrument (see Legislation Act, s 46).
The imposition must be in accordance with the approved gas restriction scheme.
As soon as possible after imposing gas restriction measures, the utility must—
ensure that notice of the imposition is broadcast in the ACT by television or radio; and
give notice of the imposition on the utility’s internet website; and
give public notice of the imposition.
Note Public notice means notice on an ACT government website or in a daily newspaper circulating in the ACT (see Legislation Act, dict, pt 1).
To remove any doubt, the utility may impose gas restriction measures more than once under a gas restriction scheme in force under section 9.
A failure to comply with subsection (3) does not affect the validity of the imposition.
