4. For Article 6 (establishment of network codes) substitute—
1. In this Article—
(a)“the Withdrawal Act” means the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018;
(b)“corresponding provision”, in relation to a relevant provision, has the meaning given by paragraphs 2 and 3;
(c)“deficiency” is to be interpreted in accordance with subsections (2) to (4) and subsection (9) of section 8 of the Withdrawal Act (with references in those subsections to retained EU law being read as if they included references to relevant provisions);
(d)an “electricity network code or guideline” means—
(i)a network code adopted by the Commission before exit day, under this Article as it has effect in EU law; or
(ii)guidelines adopted by the Commission before exit day, under Article 18 as it has effect in EU law;
(e)“national authority” means—
(i)the Secretary of State, in relation to Great Britain;
(ii)the Secretary of State or the Northern Ireland department, in relation to Northern Ireland;
(f)“the Northern Ireland department” means the Department for the Economy;
(g)“permitted amendment”, in relation to a relevant provision, means an amendment to that provision which would not prevent it from having effect as a corresponding provision; and
(h)a “relevant provision” means a provision of an electricity network code or guideline which—
(i)although in force immediately before exit day, is stated to apply from a time after exit day (a “relevant non-operative provision”); or
(ii)was in force and applied before exit day, but is revoked or amended by regulations under section 8(1) of the Withdrawal Act in consequence of another provision being a relevant non-operative provision.
2. A national authority may, by regulations, make provision which corresponds to a relevant provision of an electricity network code or guideline (a “corresponding provision”).
3. For this purpose, a provision corresponds to a relevant provision if—
(a)the national authority considers that it has the same or substantially the same effect as the relevant provision; or
(b)it is different from the relevant provision, other than in respects that fall within subparagraph (a), only to such extent as the national authority considers appropriate for the purpose in paragraph 4.
4. That purpose is to prevent, remedy or mitigate—
(a)any failure of a provision to operate effectively; or
(b)any other deficiency in a provision,
arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU.
5. Regulations under paragraph 2 may, in particular—
(a)amend the electricity network code or guideline so that it contains the corresponding provision; or
(b)if all the provisions of the electricity network code or guideline are relevant provisions, provide that the electricity network code or guideline has effect in domestic law, with such permitted amendments (if any) as are specified in the regulations.
6. Regulations under paragraph 2—
(a)may include provision of a kind which may be made in regulations under section 8(1) of the Withdrawal Act by virtue of subsection (5) or (6) of that section;
(b)may not include provision of a kind specified in subsection (7) of that section.
7. The following provisions in Part 3 of Schedule 7 to the Withdrawal Act (general provision about powers under Act) apply to regulations made under paragraph 2 as they do to regulations under section 8(1) of the Withdrawal Act—
(a)paragraph 21 (power to make supplementary provision, etc.);
(b)paragraph 27 (disapplication of certain review provisions);
(c)paragraph 36 (hybrid instruments).
8. An electricity network code or guideline which has effect in domestic law by virtue of provision made under paragraph 5(b) (as modified under this Regulation or by other domestic law from time to time) is to be treated as—
(a)retained EU law, for the purposes of—
(i)section 6 of the Withdrawal Act (interpretation of retained EU law); and
(ii)section 15(2) of, and Part 2 of Schedule 5 to, the Withdrawal Act (rules of evidence);
(b)retained direct minor EU legislation, for the purposes of—
(i)section 7(3) of the Withdrawal Act (status of retained EU law);
(ii)paragraph 30 of Schedule 8 to the Withdrawal Act (Human Rights Act 1998).
9. No regulations may be made under this Article after the end of the period of two years beginning with exit day.”.
