Railways: Fares
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much her Department and its arm's-length bodies have spent on (a) advertising, (b) marketing, (c) external public relations and (d) other communications activity on their announcement regarding regulated rail fares in England for the year 2026-27.
Answered by Keir Mather
Other than that reported in the answer on 13 March to Question 117710, the Department has not found any additional external expenditure on advertising, marketing, external public relations or other communications activity specifically in relation to the announcement of regulated rail fares for 2026-27. Any routine communications activity associated with this announcement has been delivered using existing departmental and arm’s‑length body resources and budgets, and costs are not held separately.
