NATIONAL GAS (VICTORIA) ACT 2008 - SECT 27

Certain decisions relating to certain access arrangements are reviewable regulatory decisions for purposes of National Gas (Victoria) Law

    (1)         Despite anything to the contrary in the National Gas (Victoria) Law, the definition of reviewable regulatory decision in section 244 of that Law is deemed, during the relevant transition period, to include decisions of the AER—

        (a)         that disallow a variation proposed by a service provider of a Reference Tariff contained in a revised gas distribution access arrangement deemed to be an AER approved access arrangement under section 25; or

        (b)     to make the AER's own variation of a Reference Tariff in respect of a revised gas distribution access arrangement deemed to be an AER approved access arrangement under section 25

              (i)     on disallowing a variation proposed by a service provider; or

              (ii)     because a service provider fails to submit such a variation as required.

    (2)     In this clause—

"new scheme revisions commencement date" means the date revisions approved or made under the National Gas (Victoria) Law and the National Gas Rules to a revised gas distribution access arrangement deemed to be an AER approved full access arrangement under section 25 take effect following the first review of that access arrangement under that Law and those Rules after the NGL commencement day;

"Reference Tariff" has the same meaning as in the Access Code;

"relevant transition period" means the period—

        (a)     commencing on the NGL commencement day; and

        (b)     ending on the day after the day that is 15 business days after the new scheme revisions commencement date.
