Energy Act 2013

Schedule 3: Part 5
Paragraph 19: Licence modifications

234.Paragraph 19 provides the Secretary of State with powers to modify generation, transmission and distribution licences, the standard conditions of such licences and documents maintained in accordance with conditions of such licences (such as industry codes). There are two purposes for which the powers are exercisable (see sub-paragraph (2)) – which relate to the provision of services or enforcement. For example, the powers may be used to make amendments to the Balancing and Settlement Code (BSC) (which is a document falling within sub-paragraph (1)(c)) to enable the BSC company to provide settlement services to the Secretary of State, an investment contract counterparty or a CFD counterparty. Or new licence conditions could be imposed to assist in the enforcement of obligations under investment contracts were contractual remedies thought insufficient to provide protection against abuse.

235.The powers to make licence modification here are supplemented by section 64, which also contains requirements of the procedures that need to be followed in connection with modifications.

Paragraph 20: Expenditure

236.Paragraph 20 provides Parliamentary authorisation for certain items of expenditure by the Secretary of State in connection with investments contracts. The expenditure covered includes expenditure incurred for the purposes of obtaining advice and assistance in relation to investment contracts (for example, to engage technical advisers to assess a generator’s construction costs). The paragraph would also authorise, for example, financial assistance given to an investment contract counterparty to assist with set-up costs or costs which the Secretary of State might incur in establishing one.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
