		Origin Energy has argued that the “not to carry on a Related Business” requirement would force it to separate the gas production business from the gas transportation business, and that this would require renegotiation of existing contracts and a consequent set of new contracts.
		Origin Energy claimed that Confidential Information provided by a User or Prospective User or any other Confidential Information obtained by the staff member responsible for gas transportation will therefore be separate from the information associated with the gas production and gas trading activities of the Tubridgi Pipeline.
		Origin Energy in the original application proposed that it would provide the Regulator with evidence demonstrating that the Tubridgi Parties as gas shippers were not acting in an anti-competitive manner should the gas production or gas trading businesses of the Tubridgi Parties increase their capacity allocation on the Tubridgi Pipeline System.
