<p>As identified in the report by Chris Gibb, system integrity on the Southern network
is a matter for the Alliance Board supported by the Thameslink 2018 Industry Readiness

that system oversight is now being provided by Network Rail, on a route led basis,
supported by a reformed national team (Network Rail’s National System Operator). These
