This page currently includes our consultation paper and associated documents. We have published submissions and cross-submissions (see below).
Consultation
In August, we had released a consultation paper on options for connection charges and related provisions (all information is here). In our response to submissions and cross-submissions, we stated we would undertake further consultation on the first-mover disadvantage problem, recognising its complexity and importance.
On 28 October, we released a consultation paper (below) seeking further feedback on how the first mover disadvantage problem might be addressed in the new TPM proposal.
Submissions were due by 5pm on Wednesday, 18 November 2020, followed by a one-week period for cross-submissions. Thank you to all who contributed. We will review all submissions and cross-submissions as we develop the new TPM.
