132 Designation of registered RoLR for RoLR event
132 Designation of registered RoLR for RoLR event
(1) The AER may appoint 1 or more registered RoLRs as designated RoLRs for a RoLR event—
(a) before the RoLR event; or
(b) within 72 hours after the RoLR event.
(2) The appointment is made by the AER giving written notice of the appointment to the registered RoLR and AEMO.
(2a) The appointment takes effect—
(a) immediately; or
(b) from an earlier or later time specified in or fixed in accordance with the RoLR notice.
(2b) If no registered RoLR is appointed for a RoLR event before the RoLR event occurs, the default RoLR is taken to be appointed as the designated RoLR for the RoLR event—
(a) on the occurrence of the event; or
(b) from an earlier or later time specified in or fixed in accordance with the RoLR notice for the RoLR event.
(3) (Repealed)
(3a) The appointment of the default RoLR as the designated RoLR under subsection (2b) also operates subject to—
(a) any other provision made in the RoLR notice for the RoLR event; and
(b) any determination by the AER in the circumstances of the particular case (including a determination that has the effect of over-riding the operation of subsection (2b) so that an appointment under that subsection will be taken not to have been made).
(4) The AER must notify a registered RoLR before appointing it as a designated RoLR, but the registered RoLR’s consent is not required for appointment.
(5) If—
(a) the AER includes a direction under section 137 in a RoLR notice; and
(b) there is more than one distributor who will receive the direction; and
(c) the distribution systems of those distributors are connected to the same transmission pipeline,
only the same designated RoLR may, despite any other provision of this Part, be appointed (or be taken to be appointed) as the designated RoLR for each of those distribution systems.
