Rail operators

We are reviewing the passenger rolling stock maintenance market to assess whether it is functioning to the benefit of users and funders of the railway.

In line with all Civil Service departments, we are required to submit a summary of our employee absence statistics to the Cabinet Office and to publish the figures on a quarterly basis.

Our enforcement powers are established by legislation.

We are governed by a board responsible for setting our strategy and overseeing its delivery.
