Requirements for regulations
11WN Requirements for regulations
The Minister may, under section 11WM, recommend the making of regulations in respect of a distribution licence or a trading licence only if he or she considers that —
without the grant of an exclusive licence of that kind in respect of the area during the period of exclusivity there will be no supply of gas through a distribution system, or a limited supply, in the area during that period;
it is not contrary to the public interest that an exclusive licence of that kind have effect in respect of the area during the period of exclusivity; and
the regulations will provide for an open and competitive tender process to be carried out to determine the person to whom the licence is to be granted.
Regulations made under section 11WM —
are to set out the requirements to be observed, in addition to the other provisions of this Part, before an exclusive licence may be granted; and
may provide for the terms and conditions of an exclusive licence in addition to those otherwise provided for by this Part.
