We are asking for opinions on proposed changes to primary legislation required to bring about rail reform.
This consultation covers:

- reform of wider industry structures and processes
We are also seeking evidence of the risks and potential implications of the policies proposed to inform our impact assessments. This includes any potential costs, benefits, disadvantages or risks.
