Answer
Ofgem has received a number of partial Licence Lite applications. One of these is from the Greater London Authority, which submitted a partial application in September 2013 and is in the process of identifying its partner licensed supplier. Once the GLA has completed this process it can submit a full application, which, if received this year, Ofgem expects to make a final decision on early next year. Ofgem is also consulting on revised Licence Lite guidance to ensure applicants have the information they need to make use of the provision.
