Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether Great British Railways will be required to publish all access decisions and criteria used in determining them.

GBR will take access decisions against duties clearly defined in the bill and public law principles including to act fairly and transparently. As ORR do now, we would expect GBR to publish its access decisions. GBR will be required in Legislation to publish its criteria for taking access decisions in its Access and Use Policy.
