Licence Condition 15.3.1 of the Licence Conditions and Code of Practice (LCCP) has been updated requiring all licensees to submit regulatory returns on a quarterly basis, within 28 days of the end of each quarterly period.

Any previous returns that included the 30^th June 2024, will now fall due on either the 28^th July or the 11^th August 2024 dependent on the operating licence, and the new reporting period starts today and will run until 30 September 2024.

Going forward, all operating licences will be harmonised, and the regulatory returns will be due within 28 days of the end of the quarterly period with the July to September 2024 return being due on the 28^th October 2024.

In addition to the amendment above, the Commission have introduced further changes to the regulatory return process following a consultation in 2020, which includes the removal of some questions asked of operators when filing returns.
