Schedule 9: Independent System Operator and Planner: transfers Schedule 14: Minor and consequential amendments: Part 6 Electricity Act 1989
Paragraphs 5 to 8 amend the Electricity Act 1986 to ensure that the bodies responsible for operating a designated central system (i.e., an IT system connected with the maintenance, operation, or data storage of a designated document) are treated as regulated persons when subject to a direction from the GEMA under section 194 of this Act. This amendment will allow the GEMA to use its enforcement powers if the responsible body in question fails to comply with a direction.
