CAP078 - Charging for Costs incurred in the acquisition of consents under the Construction Agreement

Under the terms of the Construction Agreement (shown in Section 2.4.1 of Schedule 2 Exhibit 3 of the CUSC), Users are liable to pay to NGC all Engineering Charges and proper expenses incurred in seeking and obtaining consents for works necessary to facilitate the connection. Consents costs can generally be defined as those costs associated with the seeking and obtaining of any permissions or rights necessary to construct and/or operate transmission assets. Typically they can include costs in evaluating potential options, providing drawings for new works, production of Environmental Statements, meetings with local authorities and landowners, inquiries and appeals, surveyors and legal charges incurred in the production of a lease, wayleaves and easements and the actual wayleave and easement costs.  These costs may be incurred as internal NGC costs or externally.
