“Ourprices are set against the Framework on a three-yearly cycle, with the next cycle running from 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2025.

“Before we set our prices for that period, weare seeking feedback on the Framework itself and a proposed change to the treatmentof ‘works-in-progress’ that will more closely align our approach to that of the Commerce Commission when calculating the capital charge,” he said.
