Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to his oral contribution of 4 June 2018, Official Report, column 53, by what date his Department plans to conclude it's review of whether GTR and Northern met their contractual obligations in the planning and delivery of the timetable change; and whether he plans to report the conclusions of that review to the House.

In line with our duty to protect the public interest by securing compliance with the franchise agreements under which rail services are delivered, the Department will examine whether GTR and Northern have met their contractual obligations in line with the established ‘Enforcement Policy: Rail Franchise Agreements and Closures’ procedure.
