The CRU has today, 19 December published a decision and consultation response paper and the finalised Gas Safety Regulatory Framework for Ireland – Gas Safety Case Guidelines for Natural Gas and LPG Licenced Undertakings V5.0. The key change to the guidelines is more specific and detailed requirements for supplier and shipper safety cases as set out in Parts F and G respectively. Requirements for suppliers and shippers previously set out in Part A have been removed and included in parts F and G for simplicity. These amendments will provide greater transparency and clarity to suppliers and shippers in providing safety cases to the CRU for acceptance.
