These Regulations make provision for pass-through requirements in relation to the Energy Bills Discount Scheme (EBDS) Regulations 2023 in England, Wales and Scotland (S.I. 2023/453) and in Northern Ireland (S.I. 2023/454). Pass-through requirements are imposed on a “relevant intermediary” (as defined in regulation 2) and establish that they must pass-through the benefits of the EBDS to an “end user” (defined in section 19(3) of the Energy Prices Act 2022 (c. 44), subject to an exception for excluded end users as defined in regulation 2) to whom energy or energy products (or both) have been made available. The Regulations apply in respect of relevant intermediaries, other than a) an “intermediary” as defined in regulation 2(1) of the Energy Bills Discount Scheme Pass-through Requirement (Heat Suppliers) Regulations 2023 (S.I. 2023/455) and b) those providing certain types of hospitality accommodation (defined as “excluded persons” under these Regulations). The Regulations also deal with adjustments to pass-through amounts which may be needed if a supply redetermination event occurs under the Energy Bills Discount Scheme Regulations 2023 or the Energy Bills Discount Scheme (Northern Ireland) Regulations 2023.
