Railways: Safety
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps she plans to take to ensure continuity of existing safety management systems during the transition from Network Rail to Great British Railways.
Answered by Keir Mather
The safety of the railways will always be our first priority. Network Rail, train operators, Department for Transport Operator and the ORR have been working together to agree and implement the safety management systems that will need to be in place for day one of Great British Railways. Where appropriate, existing arrangements will continue.
