96  Requirements to give design notifications
 (1) For the purposes of paragraph 114(2)(d) of the Act, this section provides for requirements for licence holders to give the Regulator notifications (design notifications), in accordance with section 98 of this instrument, in relation to the design of licence infrastructure.

Proposed commercial licence
 (2) A licence holder that proposes to make an initial plan approval application for the Regulator to approve a plan as the management plan for a proposed commercial licence:
 (a) must, before making the application, give the Regulator a design notification in relation to the design of licence infrastructure for the proposed commercial licence; and
 (b) must not make the application until the Regulator has given feedback on the design notification under section 99.

Transmission and infrastructure licences
 (3) If:
 (a) the holder of a transmission and infrastructure licence proposes to make an initial plan approval application or a plan revision approval application in relation to the licence; and
 (b) if the application were granted, the management plan for the licence would authorise the licence holder to carry out an offshore infrastructure project for a purpose mentioned in paragraph 58(b) of the Act (storing, transmitting or conveying electricity or a renewable energy product); and
 (c) in the case of a plan revision approval application—the existing management plan for the licence does not authorise the licence holder to carry out an offshore infrastructure project for such a purpose;
the licence holder:
 (d) must, before making the application, give the Regulator a design notification in relation to the design of licence infrastructure for the licence (other than licence infrastructure that is only to be used for the purpose mentioned in paragraph 58(a) of the Act (assessing feasibility)); and
 (e) must not make the application until the Regulator has given feedback on the design notification under section 99.
