P264 – Two-thirds majority requirement for Panel recommendations on licence originated Modifications
Formal title: Two-thirds majority requirement for Panel recommendations on licence originated Modifications
Current Status
Summary
From time to time, the licensee (National Grid) may be obligated to raise Modifications to amend the BSC. For example, when directed by the Authority due to the conclusion of a Significant Code Review (SCR).
P264 proposes that when the BSC Panel votes to determine their final recommendation on a Modification the Licensee as been obligated to raise, a two-thirds majority will be required. If a two-thirds majority is not reached, the Modification will be progressed as recommended for rejection.
