  • David Gallant
    David Gallant Consultation Questions The answer boxes will expand as you type. Procuring rail passenger services 1. What are the merits of offering the ScotRail franchise as a dual focus franchise and what services should be covered by the economic rail element, and what by the social rail element? Q1 comments: Q1 A single franchise should be offered as far as train operations are concerned, however, many franchise-holders do not maintain their trains properly, so I would propose that train maintenance depots should be the subject of a separate franchise. However, before the franchise goes out to tender, an investigation should be carried out into the question of whether the most rural routes would be the subject of any interest from non-profit-making organisations. They would inevitably need financial help to start with, but this would be more than made up for by reduction in operating subsidies. I would also like to see talks with the government of Northern Ireland with a view to allowing Northern Ireland Railways to bid. They operate a very efficient railway system in Northern Ireland and should not be banned from bidding. 2. What should be the length of the contract for future franchises, and what factors lead you to this view? Q2 comments: Q2. All franchises should be for a fixed-term of 7 years with no provision for any extension. 3. What risk support mechanism should be reflected within the franchise? Q3 comments: Q3. Provision should be made for trains to continue to operate irrespective of insolvency of operating company or of its parent company.

  • Abellio Scotrail Accessible Travel Policy Approval Decision Letter And
    Marcus Clements Head of Consumer Policy Rail Markets and Economics Email: 12 March 2021 Alex Hynes Managing Director Abellio Scotrail By Email Dear Alex, Approval of Abellio Scotrail’s (Scotrail’s) Accessible Travel Policy (Condition 5 of the Station Licence and GB Statement of National Regulatory Conditions: Passenger) Thank you for submitting Scotrail’s revised Accessible Travel Policy (ATP) for approval. We have reviewed the ATP against the September 2020 “Accessible Travel Policy Guidance for Train and Station Operators” (the guidance). I can confirm that Scotrail’s ATP now meets the requirements of Condition 5 of its station licence and GB Statement of National Regulatory Conditions: Passenger (SNRP). When I last wrote to you on 18 June 2020, confirming the approval of your previous ATP, I noted Scotrail’s intention to have designated meeting points in place by the end of June 2020. You have since indicated that COVID-19 restrictions have prevented this from taking place, but that that work will be carried out as soon as it is safe to do so. We will ask for updates at our regular ATP quarterly meetings. Please provide a final proofed and branded version of all ATP documents by 9 April 2021. A copy of the approved ATP will then be published on our website along with a copy of this letter. As you are aware, ATPs must be reviewed by operators on an annual basis. Please submit an updated ATP for ORR review by 31 December 2021. Yours sincerely, Marcus Clements Page 1 of 1 1772246 ScotRail Accessible Travel Policy January 2021 P2 Contents A.
