(b)any relevant obligation which has been partially discharged, and the extent to which it has been discharged; and
(c)any relevant obligation which has not been discharged.
(5) For the purposes of this regulation, any amount treated as a payment by an electricity supplier to the CFD counterparty by virtue of regulation 21(4) or (5) or regulation 30(3) is to be treated as a payment made by that supplier to the CFD counterparty for the purpose of discharging its relevant obligations.
