24th April 2015 SoS Notice 24 April 15
SEC Section F, Section H and Section XSoS issued a direction on 30 th  April 2015, the Secretary of State (SoS) issued a direction to activate and vary the provisions in Section F5 (Communications Hub Forecasts & Orders).

The SoS direction has designated that Section F5 as varied by Section X3.3, is in effect from 30th April 2015.

This activation date is to ensure Parties can take delivery of Communication Hubs on a revised Initial Delivery Date of 1st March 2016.

For a Party to be able to take delivery of Communications Hubs on 1st March 2016, the initial forecast must be submitted in May 2015, no later than the fifth working day prior to the last working day of the month.

The direction also varies the transitional arrangements, in Sections X3.3(c(i), (ii) and (iii), for submitting Communications Hub forecasts and orders. The transitional provisions will remain in place until 30 th September 2015 (or such later date as the SoS may direct).

The direction varies the Section F5.6 (Parties: Duty to Submit Communications Hub Forecasts) provisions on how forecasts are deemed where a Party does not submit a forecast. Where a Party does not submit a forecast in May 2015, the Party shall be deemed to have submitted a forecast of zero for each of the months which should have been covered by that forecast.

The SoS Direction also has the effect that from 1st August 2015 Section H8.16(f) (Self Service Interface) will take effect, at which point the DCC will be required to provide extensive SM WAN coverage information.

The direction also varies the transitional requirements in Section X3.3(c)(iv) on the DCC around the provision of information to Parties on SM WAN coverage. The direction means that the transitional requirements will remain in place until 31st July 2015.

In addition the direction has varied (pursuant to Section X3.6) that the information referred to in Section H6.16(f) that the DCC must provide, will be made available to all other Parties (not just the classes of party referred to in Section H8.16(f) and that the information will be made available via a readily available means (not via the Self-Service Interface).
30th April 2015 SoS Notice 30 April 15
SEC Section NSoS issued a direction on 30 th  April 2015 to the Data and Communications Company (DCC) for the purpose of Section N3.2 (Overview of Initial Enrolment), in respect of the Initial Enrolment Project Feasibility Report (IEPFR).

The Secretary of State direction has directed the DCC to:

  1. Provide with reasonable notice to Supplier Parties, appropriate opportunities as defined by the DCC, for each Supplier Party to notify the DCC if they wish to include or exclude any additional Energy Meters from the scope of the IEPFR. This must be done prior to the DCC consulting on the draft IEPFR in accordance with Section N4.5; and

  2. Include or exclude (as applicable) from the scope of the IEPFR those Energy Meters notified in accordance with the requirements above (and, where no such notification is received from a Supplier Party, the DCC shall assume that previously notified Energy Meters remain in scope of the IEPFR).

In short the direction means that Section N4.7, N4.8 and N4.9 shall cease to apply, with the remaining provisions in Section N4 left unchanged.

SEC Section X Secretary of State direction to further extend the sunset provisions, in Section X2.4(b) and Section X2.5(a), until September 2016 to allow the DCC to continue to use interim data.11th August 2015 SoS Notice 11 August 15
SEC Section X and Section FIn addition to designating the CH Handover Support Materials and making other minor related changes to the SEC, the SoS direction letter issued on the 14th September 2015 included the following supplementary provisions:

  • Parties currently submit Communications Hub Forecasts pursuant to Sections X3.3(c)(ii) and (iii) of the SEC, for which transitional arrangements are due to end on 30 th September 2015. From 1st October 2015, Parties will have the ability to submit Communications Hub Forecasts via the Order Management System comprising part of the CH Ordering System (as further described in the CHHSM). We believe that Parties would find it useful to have a period within which both means of forecast submission are available. The transitional arrangements in Sections X3.3(c)(ii) and (iii) of the SEC shall therefore also continue to apply until 1st April 2016, noting that a Party shall submit each Communications Hub Forecast for any particular 24-month period only once and, in the event that a Party should submit in error that forecast using both the transitional arrangements and the Order Management System, only the first of the forecasts submitted shall apply.

  • The CHHSM references the Incident Management Policy and CH Installation and Maintenance Support Materials neither of which have been incorporated into the SEC, and any references as such should be read as references to the draft versions included in baselined documents published on the DCC website.

  • The CHHSM contains a reference to Section F6.17 (Non-Standard Delivery Options) of the SEC. The SEC has not yet been modified to include Section F6.17.and so the reference is to be read as a reference to the proposed Section F6.17 published for consultation on 16 July 2015.

  • The CHHSM contains references to the Self-Service Interface. The DCC is not yet obliged under the SEC to make the Self-Service Interface available. Until its inclusion the provisions concerning the Self-Service Interface in the CHHSM shall not apply.
