Response to individual Sample Clauses

Response to individual comments One respondent questioned the model being employed to set up Gaslink as Independent System Operator. Gaslink are an independent subsidiary of BGE. They pointed to the model used in electricity transmission as being preferable where EirGrid were set up as an entirely independent company while the Electricity Supply Board (ESB) retained asset ownership. The set-up of the ISO was directed through Part 2 of SI NO. 760 of 2005 and so is outside the remit of this consultation and the jurisdiction of the Commission.

Many of the operation functions are carried out by BGE for Gaslink. One respondent felt that there should be a clear migration plan set out to shown how the responsibilities for these functions will move across to Gaslink from BGE. They also felt that the non transportation assets should move to Gaslink also. The decision on what responsibilities should be carried out by BGE and Gaslink is one for the Minister. The transfer plan will contain these details. The decision to move any responsibilities (or non transportation assets) in the future will remain with the Minister. One of the respondents feels that the Operating Agreement gives BGE too much power to ove...
