Railways: Industrial Disputes
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of industrial action by train guards on passengers.
Answered by Keir Mather
The Department regrets the impact any industrial action by guards may have on passengers. The Department works with its contracted train operators to minimise the impact of any industrial action and encourages them and the trade unions to resolve matters, through discussion, as quickly as possible.
