This review is looking at Parts 8 to 12 of the National Gas Rules (NGR) to address concerns that consumers may be paying more than necessary for gas pipeline services.

The interim report summarises stakeholder submissions to the issues paper and sets out issues for further consideration.

The review is considering whether rules need to be changed so that pipeline services are subject to appropriate regulation, including price regulation. It is also considering strengthening rules relating to access negotiation and dispute resolution between pipeline service providers and their customers.

Our analysis will be informed by the experiences of gas consumers, industry participants, regulators and governments.
