Ofgem refused the request under regulation 12(4)(b) of the EIR (manifestly unreasonable). The Commissioner’s decision is that Ofgem was entitled to refuse the request under regulation 12(4)(b). The Commissioner finds that the public interest lies in maintaining Ofgem’s application of this exception. She also finds that Ofgem complied with regulation 9 of the EIR (advice and assistance). The Commissioner does not require Ofgem to take any steps.
