Wijziging van de Elektriciteitswet 1998 en de Gaswet in verband met het verankeren op het niveau van wet in formele zin van het verbod tot privatisering van netten en netbeheerders

Stage otherUpdated 6d ago

This Dutch bill amends the Electricity Act 1998 and the Gas Act to write into formal legislation a ban on privatising electricity and gas networks and their grid operators. Currently such a prohibition may rest on lower-level rules; the bill would elevate it to the level of an act of parliament, making it harder to reverse without a full legislative process. The change mainly affects grid operators, the state and municipal shareholders who own them, and households and businesses that depend on stable energy distribution. It does not alter day-to-day grid operations. Based on metadata only; the full text was not reviewed.
