Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what commission percentage is charged on ticket sales made through the digital platforms of all train operating companies managed by DfT Operator Limited.
Commission rates currently payable in connection with the sale of rail tickets are available to view on the Rail Delivery Group (RDG) website: https://www.raildeliverygroup.com/our-services/retail-commercial/how-to-become-a-retailer/documents/13079-rail-industry-commission-rates-from-1st-october-2024/file.html.
Further detail on the setup of Great British Railway's (GBR's) retailer and the future governance of the rail retail market, when GBR has taken on RDG functions, will be set out in due course.
