The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many FTE staff work for Great British Rail transition team.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

The Great British Railways Transition Team (GBRTT) was set up as a temporary organisation under the previous government to design and transition towards Great British Railways, including building cross-industry capability. GBRTT no longer directly employs any staff. The Department working in close collaboration with Network Rail, DfTO and wider industry partners is taking forward work on the design and transition to GBR.
