with paragraph 28AD.21(c), provided that any such modification has come

paragraph 28A.13 is unavailable at the time of the calculation, the Authority
may use an alternative source to set the values to determine the Benchmark
Maximum Charges. In that event, the Authority will publish the alternative
value(s) it has used to determine the Benchmark Maximum Charge at the same
time as publishing the Benchmark Maximum Charges.

Duration of the Prepayment Charge Restriction
28A.16 This condition will come into force on 1 January 2017 and shall cease to have
effect on 30 June 2021.
Direction for alternative compliance assessment
28A.17 The licensee may apply to the Authority to request a direction concerning the
compliance of a particular Prepayment Tariff with the Prepayment Charge
Restriction where, due to the structure of the relevant Prepayment Tariff, the
Charges for Supply Activities at certain consumption levels would exceed the
Relevant Maximum Charge, but the licensee can provide evidence to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Authority that it is unlikely that Relevant
Customers subject to such Prepayment Tariff will have a consumption level
which would cause them to incur Charges for Supply Activities in excess of the
Relevant Maximum Charge.
