Railways: Industrial Disputes

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans he has to provide minimum service levels on railways during periods of industrial action.

Answer

Recent strike action on rail has highlighted the need for a fairer approach to providing train services during times of strike action. Minimum Service Levels legislation would, in future, help to ensure an appropriate level of train services would still operate during strike action.
