  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the Electricity and Gas (Standards of Performance) (Suppliers) Regulations 2015 (S.I. 2015/1544) (the “Principal Regulations”).\nRegulation 2 amends regulation 8 of the Principal Regulations (suppliers’ payment obligations), by increasing the payment that a supplier must make to the customer if they-\nfail to meet a relevant standard of performance; or\nfail to make a standard payment within 10 working days; or\nfail to relay a distributed payment within 10 working days.\nThe payment is increased from £30 to £40.\nRegulation 3 makes transitional provision for circumstances where immediately before these Regulations come into effect a supplier is required by the Principal Regulations to make a £30 payment. Where this applies, the payment is not increased by the coming into force of these Regulations and remains at £30.\nA full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.",
