Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

A gas supplier who does not hold a licence under section 7A(2) of the Act is an exempt shipper when arranging with a gas transporter for gas to be conveyed by means of, or taken out of, a pipeline system operated by that transporter in circumstances where—

(a)

arrangements which had been in place between the transporter and a gas shipper to convey gas to premises supplied by the supplier have ended; and

(b)

by virtue of a condition of its licence, the supplier is required to provide security and pay charges to the transporter, in relation to those premises, as if the supplier were the gas shipper and the arrangements had not ended.
