Section 22: Enforcement
128.Section 22 enables the obligations of suppliers under regulations made under this Chapter to be enforced by the Authority in Great Britain, or the Northern Ireland Authority for Utility Regulations in Northern Ireland, as if they are relevant requirements. This means that a breach can be treated, in effect, as if it were a breach of a licence condition allowing the enforcement authorities to get an order to secure compliance, and/or impose financial penalties.
129.It also enables the system operator’s functions to be enforced by the Authority.
