	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2019 answer text <p><strong> </strong></p><p>The British Transport Police does not allocate officers exclusively to specific parts of the network. Train Operating Companies each contribute a share of the overall costs of policing the railway network through a Police Service Agreement (PSA) with BTP. The PSA does not specify or allocate officers to a particular PSA holder or area and it is the responsibility of the Chief Constable of BTP to determine the level of policing across the rail network as a whole.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Harrogate and Knaresborough answering member printed Andrew Jones question first answered 24/07/2019 15:03:41 answering member 3996 label Biography information for Andrew Jones

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/05/2019 answer text <p>The Department does not monitor these figures as a matter of course. We do, however, hold recent figures for the proportion of Southern services that have run without an on-board supervisor since the role was introduced in January 2017. These figures demonstrate that the percentage of services running without an on-board supervisor is very low and is decreasing over time.</p><p> </p><p>Southern are only able to run services without an on-board supervisor in exceptional circumstances. This reduces the disruption to passengers, as if a conductor was due to work on these services, but is then unavailable, then they would have had to be cancelled.</p> answering member constituency Harrogate and Knaresborough answering member printed Andrew Jones question first answered 13/05/2019 15:07:41 answering member 3996 label Biography information for Andrew Jones

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/03/2019 answer text <p>Driver Controlled Operation (DCO) was rolled out on Southern from January 2017. Operationally this means that drivers open and close the doors of the train – a modern and safe way of working. What this means for passengers is that they now have dedicated customer service staff (an on-board supervisor, or OBS) on every train that previously had a conductor. Should an OBS - at short notice - not be able to meet the train, then the train is no longer cancelled, as it would have been with a conductor.</p><p> </p><p>In 2016, no Southern services ran without a scheduled second member of staff on board. However, 8,119 trains were cancelled in 2016 because there was no conductor. This is because trains which are scheduled to run with a conductor cannot be run without a second qualified person on board.</p><p> </p><p>In 2017, 1.6% of Southern services scheduled to run with an OBS ran without an OBS for their whole journey, and 2.2% ran without an OBS for part of their journey.</p><p> </p><p>In 2018, 0.4% of Southern services scheduled to run with an OBS ran without an OBS for their whole journey, and 1.0% ran without an OBS for part of their journey.</p><p> </p><p>In the figures for January and February 2019, 0.1% of Southern services scheduled to run with an OBS ran without an OBS for their whole journey, and 0.5% ran without an OBS for part of their journey.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Harrogate and Knaresborough answering member printed Andrew Jones question first answered 13/03/2019 14:45:10 answering member 3996 label Biography information for Andrew Jones

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/02/2019 answer text <p>The Department has started considering the future of the Thameslink, Southern, and Great Northern franchise (TSGN). We are working closely with the Williams Rail Review, which is examining the most appropriate organisational and commercial models for the future of the rail industry. As a result, a decision will not be made regarding the future of TSGN before the Review findings are published in Autumn 2019.</p> answering member constituency Harrogate and Knaresborough answering member printed Andrew Jones question first answered 14/02/2019 14:54:14 answering member 3996 label Biography information for Andrew Jones
