For article 19 (use of an RTF certificate in a later obligation period) , substitute— Use of RTF certificates in later obligation periods (19) (1) A development fuel RTF certificate may count in relation to the discharge of no more than the following percentage of a transport fuel supplier’s development fuel target in the next obligation period— (a) if the obligation period stated in the certificate is that beginning on 15th April 2018, 100%; (b) if the obligation period stated in the certificate is that beginning on 1st January 2019, 0%; (c) if the obligation period stated in the certificate is any other obligation period beginning after 31st December 2019, 25%. (2) Subject to paragraph (3), any RTF certificate may count in relation to the discharge of no more than the following percentage of a transport fuel supplier’s main obligation in the next obligation period— (a) if the obligation period stated in the certificate is that beginning on 1st January 2019, 0%; (b) if the obligation period stated in the certificate is any other obligation period beginning on or after 15th April 2017, 25%. (3) The maximum amount of relevant crop RTF certificates which may count in relation to the discharge of a supplier’s main obligation in the next obligation period is the number of such certificates which corresponds with 25% of the amount calculated under article 21A for that period. (4) If, as a result of this article, an RTF certificate “may count” in relation to the discharge of any part of a transport fuel supplier’s renewal transport fuel obligation in the next obligation period, the production of the certificate by the supplier to the Administrator counts as evidence that the amount of renewable transport fuel stated in the certificate was supplied by the supplier at, or for delivery to, places in the United Kingdom during that period. (5) For the purposes of this article, any RTF certificate issued in relation to renewable transport fuel supplied in the obligation period beginning on 1st January 2019 is to be treated as if it were issued in relation to such fuel supplied in the obligation period beginning on 1st January 2020 (and, accordingly, as if the obligation period stated in the certificate were that beginning on 1st January 2020). (6) In this article “next obligation period”, in relation to an RTF certificate, means the obligation period immediately following the obligation period stated in the RTF certificate.
