Changes to rail operator licences

These changes will affect operators that hold both GB passenger statement of national regulatory provisions (SNRP) (which are granted by ORR alongside European passenger licences) and station licences granted under the Railways Act 1993. Also captured are those operators who do not hold a passenger SNRP, but hold station licences that include stations where a passenger SNRP holder stops at that station.

Office of Rail and Road has the powers, under domestic law, to make these changes without the consent of the licence holder but are instead inviting comments.
