28 February 2018 Forum

The main focus for this Forum was on Access Rights and Forward Looking Charges - building on the work of the Task Forces around initial options for change.

 

Four questions considered at the Forum:


1. Should there be different access and charging arrangements for household/other small users, compared with larger non-domestic users? Why?

2. What are the advantages/disadvantages of moving from a ‘first come-first served’ basis for allocating capacity, to an auction based approach or other periodic allocation? 

3. Are there benefits with having a greater range of network access options available?

4. What changes could be made to improve the cost reflectivity of network charges?

These questions were covered in the February Pre-Forum Podcast for Forum attendees, which you can find here
