EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Climate Change Agreements (Administration) Regulations 2012 ( S.I. 2012/1976) by substituting regulation 5(7) of those Regulations. The effect of the substitution is to remove the requirement on the administrator to take reasonable steps to ensure that from, at the latest, 1st December 2014, if requested by an operator; (a) so far as reasonably practicable, communications between the administrator and that operator take place using the Register, and (b) that operator can access its account to input any information to meet its obligations under its climate change agreement. However, the administrator will still be required to take reasonable steps to ensure that from, at the latest, 1st December 2014, if requested by an operator, that operator is able to access its account to update its personal information.

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
