What is the CACoP?
As part of Ofgem’s Code Governance Review, the Code Administration Code of Practice was established to provide a consistent approach and level of service across associated code modifications. It contains 14 principles to facilitate convergence and transparency in code Modification processes and to help protect the interests of small participants and consumers.

Principle 6 - The Proposer of a Modification will retain ownership of the detail of their solution
Principle 7 - Code Administrators will facilitate alternative solutions to issues being developed to the same degree as an original solution
Principle 8 - Estimates of implementation costs to central systems will be produced and consulted upon prior to a Modification being recommended for approval
Principle 9 - Legal text will be produced and consulted upon prior to a Modification being recommended for approval
Principle 10 - Modifications will be consulted upon and easily accessible to users, who will be given reasonable time to respond
Principle 11 - There will be flexibility for implementation, to allow proportionate delivery time and realisation of benefits
