We support the Commission’s policy position on retailer eligibility by limiting access to financial support provided by the deferral mechanism through the introduction of retailer eligibility rules. We also support the Commission’s concerns of allowing Retailers of Last Resort (RoLR) and government retailers to commercially benefit from the regulatory change without any demonstrated immediate financial need for this support.
