The South East Flexible Ticketing (SEFT) programme underwent a thorough review in the first half of 2014 to ensure that its approach and scope were designed to deliver the best possible outcomes for passengers and taxpayers.

Since this review, good progress is being made but it is too early to judge the outcomes of the programme at this point in time. The Department is committed, however, to undertaking robust evaluations of its programmes. To this end, officials are already exploring options to ensure that, as SEFT is delivered, a rigorous assessment of its outcomes can be produced and lessons learned where necessary. The earliest emerging outcomes are expected from August 2015.
