The Director General of Gas Supply, pursuant to section 7(5) of the Gas Act 1886, hereby gives notice that he proposes to grant an extension to a proposed licence under that section held by The Gas Transportation Company, whose registered office is situated at Sydney Vane House, St. Peter Port, Guernsey, Channel Islands.
The extension, if awarded, will authorise the above-named to convey gas through pipes to any premises in the areas briefly described below and shown on maps previously submitted to the Director General.

The Director General is of the opinion that the above-named applicant intends to carry on the activities which may be authorised by its licence under section 7 of the Act in the areas named, and that the granting of the extension will be calculated:
