Rolling Stock: Procurement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what her planned timetable is to publish her Department's strategy on rolling stock procurement.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
The Government is in the early stages of formulating a rolling stock strategy. The strategy will include considerations around the timelines for new build and refurbishments which will provide more visibility to the rolling stock market.
Once established, GBR will take the strategy forward providing a long-term approach to future rolling stock needs and helping to secure better value from the private rolling stock market.
