Failure to comply with petroleum-related requirements
Failure to comply with petroleum-related requirements
For a sanctions case, the Disputes and Sanctions team will carry out an Initial Assessment to examine whether there is sufficient initial evidence that there has been a failure to comply with a petroleum-related requirement (for example, potential non-compliance with the NSTA Strategy) and whether a full Investigation under the NSTA’s sanctions powers is merited or whether it is better to use other regulatory levers/powers (whether formal or informal) at the NSTA’s disposal. The NSTA notes that the evidential threshold for commencing its Investigations is low. A full investigation will be handled in accordance with the NSTA’s Sanctions procedure
