East Anglia Rail Franchise
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans she has for the future of the East Anglia railway franchise.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
The Government has been clear that all passenger railway services delivered by private sector companies under National Rail Contracts will be brought into public ownership by the end of this Parliament as current contracts end, train operating companies reach their contractual break point, or if contractual conditions for termination are met.
