The Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators will organise roundtable meetings with interested stakeholders on REMIT implementation during 2015 while working with the implementation of Regulation (EU) No 1227/2011 (REMIT) and with the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1348/20 14.
The purpose of the roundtables is to listen to the views of, and obtain information from, interested stakeholders. Another purpose is to invite attendees to comment on selected questions on data collection and other compliance issues under REMIT and its Commission Implementing Regulation.
The roundtable meetings will be arranged separately for the following stakeholder groups and/or their sub-groups:
- Organised Market Places, trade reporting systems, trade matching systems or other persons professionally arranging transactions.
- Trade repositories aiming at being registered or recognised under applicable Union legislation on derivative transactions, central counterparties and trade repositories.
- Inside Information Platforms and other service providers for the disclosure of inside information on behalf of market participants.
- Associations of market participants.
Further roundtables for additional stakeholder groups will be considered as and when needed. The former roundtable for reporting parties will, however, be transferred into a user group of Registered Reporting Mechanisms.
The roundtables will be held in Ljubljana. In order to decide on the exact organisation of the roundtables and their dates, stakeholders are invited to register their interest to participate in the roundtables by 12.00 noon, Central European Time on 6 February 2015, i.e. two weeks after the publication of this Open Letter on the Agency’s website. Registration is done by sending an application to the following mailbox: remit.roundtable@acer.europa.eu. Applications received after this deadline may not be considered.
The roundtable meetings can accommodate a limited number of participants. In the interest of admitting as many interested parties as possible, and representing a wide variety of stakeholders, only one participant per organisation is normally permitted at the roundtable.
Further information about the dates, draft agendas and more details will be sent to registered participants in due course well in advance of the relevant roundtable meeting.
