<p>As confirmed in the Secretary of State for Transport’s Oral Statement on Monday
5<sup>th</sup> February, his Department is conducting a full appraisal of the options
available to the Government to ensure continuity of service. This includes the service
being operated by the Department for Transport through an operator of last resort
and Stagecoach continuing to operate the service. In either scenario, the East Coast
Mainline is expected to deliver substantial revenue to the taxpayer.</p>
