Electricity Industry Act 2010

3: Act binds the Crown

You could also call this:

“This law applies to everyone, even the government”

This law applies to everyone, including the government. When the law says it “binds the Crown”, it means that even the government must follow the rules set out in this Act. You can think of it like a big game where everyone, from ordinary people to the highest officials in the country, has to play by the same rules. This helps make sure that the law is fair for everyone.
