Tom Brake – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Tom Brake on 2016-06-09.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what representations his Department has received on the recommendation of Sir Peter Hendy’s report published in November 2015, on replanning of Network Rail’s Investment Programme to defer Access to All works from Control Period 5 to Control Period 6.

Claire Perry

Over one hundred responses have been received to my Department’s consultation on the recommendations of Sir Peter Hendy’s report, a number of which reference Access for All works. My Department is committed to publishing a report summarising these responses and decisions made in light of them later this year.

In addition to the consultation my Department has received letters from a wide range of stakeholders discussing a variety of Access for All subjects, a number of whom Ministers and officials have also met.
