Full text of decision published 4 April 2006. PARTIES 1. Govia Limited (Govia) is a rail franchise holding company. It was formed as a joint venture between The Go-Ahead Group Plc (Go-Ahead) and Keolis (UK) Limited (a subsidiary of Keolis SA), which have shareholdings in Govia of 65 per cent and 35 per cent respectively. Govia will acquire the Integrated Kent Rail Franchise through its wholly owned subsidiary, London and South Eastern Railway (LSER). 2. The Integrated Kent Rail Franchise (IKF) will include passenger rail services on the network currently operated by South Eastern Trains (SET), a subsidiary of the Strategic Rail Authority (SRA). IKF is a commuter network serving several areas around the South East of England, parts of Greater London and several London termini.
