Proposed text

—(1) A consumer who is a contestable consumer under regulation 3 for any subject premises may apply to the MSSL with whom the consumer holds a contestable consumer account for the subject premises, to close the account if —(a)the subject premises are residential premises; or(b)the subject premises are non‑residential premises, and the consumer has an aggregate electricity consumption of less than 4,000 kilowatt‑hour (when calculated in accordance with paragraph (2)) over a continuous period of 12 months ending immediately before the application month.(2) For the purpose of paragraph (1)(b) and subject to paragraph (3), the aggregate electricity consumption of the consumer is the sum total of the consumer’s average monthly electricity consumption at each of the consumer’s subject premises and specified non‑residential premises over the 12‑month period mentioned in paragraph (1)(b).(3) Despite paragraph (2), where the account of the consumer with the MSSL (whether or not as a contestable consumer) has been opened for any of the subject premises or specified non-residential premises of the consumer for less than the 12-month period mentioned in paragraph (2), then —(a)the average monthly electricity consumption at those premises is to be calculated over the period for which the account for the premises has been opened; or(b)if the account has been opened for less than the whole of the month immediately preceding the application month for those premises, the average monthly electricity consumption at those premises is the electricity consumption in that preceding month.(4) An application mentioned in paragraph (1) must be in the form specified by the MSSL, and must include any information requested by the MSSL.(5) An MSSL must, without undue delay after receiving an application mentioned in paragraph (1), close the contestable consumer account for the subject premises.(6) The classification of a consumer as a contestable consumer for any subject premises ceases from the date on which the contestable consumer account is closed by the MSSL under paragraph (5), and the MSSL must notify the consumer of that date.
