Written Question
Monday 28th July 2025
Asked by:
Lord Moylan (Conservative - Life peer)
Question

The Secretary of State has not met with the rail trade unions to discuss changes to pay and conditions. These matters are for employers to discuss with their union representatives, regardless of whether publicly or privately owned.
Written Question

Asked by:
Lord Moylan (Conservative - Life peer)
Question
to the Department for Transport:
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to publish the contractual arrangements between Network Rail, Southeastern and DfT Operator Limited which enable the formation of a single leadership team for Southeastern and the Kent Route of Network Rail; and if not, what are the reasons for that decision.
Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill
- Minister of State (Department for Transport)
The Department is not a party to the contractual arrangements between Network Rail and Southeastern and cannot therefore comment on publication.
Written Question
Monday 30th June 2025
Asked by:
Lord Moylan (Conservative - Life peer)
Question
to the Department for Transport:
To ask His Majesty's Government, following the announcement on 18 June of a single leadership team for Southeastern and Network Rail’s Kent Route, what power they rely on to enable the formation of this single leadership team, and what governance processes will be in place to manage any potential conflicts of interest under current legislation.
Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill
- Minister of State (Department for Transport)
A single leadership team is achieved through contractual arrangements between Network Rail, the train operating company and DfT Operator Limited. The legal arrangements are based on those used in previous alliancing arrangements between Network Rail and train operators. These organisations will still be held to account for their respective accountabilities (including Network Rail under its network licence). Governance mechanisms being put in place include clear job descriptions for the single leadership team detailing the extent of their decision-making abilities and an escalation process for any perceived conflicts.
