Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she is considering revising the Delay Repay scheme's eligibility criteria.

Ensuring that passengers can access compensation when they face delays is a key part of delivering a fair deal for passengers on the railway.

We have one of the most generous Delay Repay systems in Europe. We continue to make progress on improving the ease with which passengers can claim Delay Repay, with the majority of Department for Transport contracted train operators offering automated 'one-click' compensation, and as we do so, we will continue to engage stakeholders where appropriate.

Delivering Great British Railways (GBR) offers the opportunity to go further, removing fragmentation and making it easier and more convenient for passengers to claim Delay Repay, including through the upcoming GBR website and app.
