CMP198: Proposer Ownership of CUSC Modification Proposals

Under Ofgem’s Code Governance Review (CGR), a Code Administrator Working Group (CAWG) was set up in order to discuss opportunities for the convergence of code modification processes and encourage best practice.  Part of the outcome of the CAWG was a recommendation that the Proposer should retain ownership of the solution of any modification that they originate.  As part of the CGR, on 3 June 2010 Ofgem published its conclusions on the Code Administration Code of Practice (CACOP) which contained a number of principles for Code Administrators to follow.  Principle 6 of the CACOP applies to the concept of Proposer Ownership[1].
