Issues paper

On 22 July 2019 the AER released an Issues Paper seeking stakeholder views on the development of a new Customer Service Incentive Scheme (CSIS).

The paper canvasses various issues related to the development of a CSIS, such as whether it would provide a useful incentive, and how we could design a Scheme should we choose to develop one.

Stakeholder forum

The AER invited stakeholders to attend workshops on the development of new incentives for customer service.

Following the workshops, the AER produced minutes which recorded the discussions.
