    CER 2015 National Report to the EC Regulator’s 2015 National Report to the European Commission Commission for Energy Regulation (CER) Ireland August 2016 1 CER 2015 National Report to the EC 1. Foreword Introduction to the report signed by the Commissioners Chairperson Garrett Blaney Commissioner Paul McGowan Commissioner Aoife MacEvilly The Commission for Energy Regulation (“the CER”) is Ireland's independent energy and water regulator. Since its establishment in 1999, the CER’s remit has expanded significantly to encompass a range of economic, customer protection and safety responsibilities in both the energy and water sectors. As an economic regulator, the CER strives to ensure a stable and predictable regulatory regime in Ireland to support efficient investment, competition and consumer protection for energy customers. As the country’s energy safety regulator our core focus is on protecting lives and having a world-class safety record. The CER’s economic role and associated energy policy developments are detailed in this annual report to the European Commission. We report here on the progress made in various areas including wholesale and retail markets regulation, networks regulation and energy safety oversight. Building on our achievements to date and looking forward to new challenges, the CER will continue to endeavour to provide a first-class regulatory service to all its customers in a cost- effective manner. Garrett Blaney Paul McGowan Aoife MacEvilly Chairperson Commissioner Commissioner 2 CER 2015 National Report to the EC 2. Main developments in the gas and electricity markets1 Electricity Networks Revenue Review Project In 2015, the CER completed its five-yearly review of electricity network revenues and charges under the Price Review 4 (PR4) project.

However the presentation of language data changes from one census to the next between 1851 and 1871 but thereafter remains the same (1871-1891).

IV., c 99. Their origins pre-date this act, they were used in the assessments of local taxation under the Grand Juries. Over time many were split into smaller units and a few were amalgamated. Townlands and parishes - smaller units - were detached from one barony and allocated to an adjoining one at vaious intervals. This the size of many baronines changed, albiet not substantially. Furthermore, reclamation of sea and loughs expanded the land mass of Ireland, consequently between 1851 and 1861 Ireland increased its size by 9,433 acres. The census Commissioners used Barony units for organising the census data from 1821 to 1891. These notes are to guide the user through these changes. From the census of 1871 to 1891 the number of subjects enumerated at this level decreased In addition, city and large town data are also included in many of the barony tables.
