Pursuant to Article 10(4) of the Order the Northern Ireland Authority for Utility Regulation (the Authority), hereby gives notice as follows:

1 It proposes, in accordance with Article 10 (1) of the Order, to grant a licence to supply electricity to: LCC Power Limted, a limited company having its registered office at 16 Churchtown Road, Cookstown, Co Tyrone, BT80 9XD (the “Proposed Licensee”).

4 The Authority further considers that the application made by the Proposed Licensee has been made in the prescribed manner and confirms that the appropriate fee has been submitted.

5 The purpose of this public notice is to bring to the attention of persons likely to be affected by the grant of the proposed licence referred to above and to invite representations or objections in connection thereto.  Any representations or objections with respect to the Proposed Licence may be made on or before Friday 16th December 2011.
