Council discussed a formal agreement/Memorandum of Understanding with the CEC in relation to the CEC role as Code Administrator.
Council noted that while the roles of Code Administrator and Steward are separate, as a matter of practical reality the CEC will also perform the role of Steward until such time as this is reviewed.
The legal status of the Council was discussed, and it was agreed to obtain further advice about this.
Following a previous tender process, the CEC proposes to use marketing agency, Ellis Jones, for branding and marketing for the NETCC. Council endorsed this proposal.
The CEC Communications and Marketing Manager will provide a marketing and branding overview at a future Council meeting.
Following the previous Council meeting, there was further discussion about the proposed fee consultation for stakeholders.
It was agreed that the fee consultation paper will be sent to all existing Signatories to the Solar Retailer Code as well as any other interested party subscribed via the NETCC webpage. Council members will also forward the survey to their respective member base.
A high-level transition process for Solar Retailer Code Signatories to become NETCC Signatories was outlined, whereby existing Approved Solar Retailers will be given the opportunity to transition to the NETCC via the annual renewal process. This will result in a gradual transition to the NETCC over the course of a year, commencing July 2022. New applications for retailers to become NETCC Signatories will also be open from July 2022.
