A plan developed under the forensic eye of our Independent Stakeholder Group
Our Independent Stakeholder Group (ISG) has provided challenge and scrutiny throughout the development of our plan. They are experts in finance, gas distribution, social inclusion, innovation and sustainability challenge us and hold us to account for our promises.
All gas networks had an independent challenge group in the last Ofgem planning period. But we’re the only network that kept ours going at the same level since then – because we believe their robust challenge is essential to ensure our plan meets our customers’ priorities while crucially delivering value for money.
