By an addition to the provisional articles of the Regulation
(provisional article 4), it is provided that during the transitional period
stated in provisional article 9 of the Act the change of supplier requests
of the consumers providing electricity from the distribution companies
possessing retail sale licenses will enter into force on January 1, April 1,
July 1 and October 1.
As a result, the modifications are related to problems in practice, and
the sanction of cutting off the electricity of the eligible consumers who
have not fulfilled their payment obligations was introduced in order to
cover the gaps in practice.
