(2) To avoid doubt, after the NGL commencement day, a covered pipeline service provider must, despite anything to the contrary in an access arrangement referred to in subsection (1), submit an access arrangement revision proposal in relation to that access arrangement in accordance with section 132 of the National Gas (Victoria) Law and the National Gas Rules. (3) Sections 3, 8 and 10.8 of the Access Code, as applied under this section, do not have effect to the extent that they provide for or deal with the procedure for the approval of revisions to access arrangements.
