The
rule change process is a consultative and inclusive process designed
to ensure that any change to the Retail Market Rules, the REMCo Specification
Pack or the FRC Hub Conditions is developed and implemented in a controlled
and agreed fashion. All relevant stakeholders in any rule change will

change before REMCo submits the rule change to the relevant jurisdictional
authority for approval.
