9  Levies are imposed at start of period, and for full period
  To avoid doubt:
 (a) a levy that relates to a period for which a licence is held is imposed on the person who holds the licence at the start of that period; and
 (b) subject to sections 10 (licences that cease to be in effect during payment periods) and 11 (parts of licence areas that become vacated areas during payment periods), the full amount of the levy is imposed even if the person does not intend to hold the licence for the whole period.
Note: However, if the licence ceases to be in effect, or if a part of the licence area becomes a vacated area, an amount of levy may be refunded (see section 150 of the Offshore Electricity Infrastructure Regulations 2022).
