Creation of rights and access for Centrica

3.—(1) Before extinguishing any existing rights for Centrica to keep, inspect, renew, maintain and decommission its apparatus on, over or in the Order land or to cross the Order land to access its apparatus, the undertaker at its expense, with the agreement of Centrica, must create a new right, which is consistent with the existing right being extinguished, to keep, inspect, renew, maintain and decommission the apparatus in the same location or a new right of access that it reasonably convenient for Centrica, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(2) The undertaker will not in the exercise of any powers conferred by this Order unreasonably interfere with Centrica’s access to inspect, renew, maintain or decommission the pipeline unless a suitable alternative access is provided at the undertaker’s expense prior to and for the duration of any such interference.
