The Modification Panel is the body constituted under the Uniform Network Code to oversee the Modification process.
Shipper Representatives are elected every two years, via the Joint Office. The current membership runs from 01 October 2023 to 30 September 2025. Details of the election process for the Shipper Representatives can be found at: /elections
Transporter Representatives are appointed by the relevant Gas Transporters. Almost all decisions are taken on a simple majority basis.
Industry observers are welcome to attend Panel meetings by prior arrangement and subject to space availability. Please contact the Joint Office (see below) if you would like to attend any Panel meeting. Please also note that observers cannot participate in proceedings unless invited to do so by the Chair.
