[holding answer 17 July 2006]: Following my announcement on 30 March 2006 that the Government had decided to extend the regulated price control model to offshore transmission, DTI and Ofgem are working with industry to develop that new regime.
Ofgem issued a scoping document setting out the main issues that need to be considered on 3 April 2006. The document can be found at:

Further information about the project to deliver the new regime including project structure, governance and timetable can be found at:
