The Alternative Fuel Payment Pass-through Requirement (England and Wales and Scotland) Regulations 2023

These Regulations make provision for pass-through requirements in relation to the Alternative Fuel Payment in England and Wales and Scotland. Pass-through requirements are imposed on a “relevant intermediary” (defined in regulation 2) and establish that they must pass-through an Alternative Fuel Payment (AFP) to an “end user” to whom energy or energy products (or both) have been made available (“end user” is defined in section 19(3) of the Energy Prices Act 2022 (c. 44)). These Regulations apply in respect of relevant intermediaries other than those providing certain types of hospitality accommodation (defined as “excluded persons” under these Regulations).
