For example, there are now more on-train staff on Southern and South Western Railways and their modernisation plans will mean more staff to assist passengers on trains. Regarding off-train staff, the number of staff employed at stations in Hampshire has increased by nearly 10% since 2010.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>In addition, train and station operators are required as a condition of their licence to take part in the Passenger Assist scheme through which disabled passengers can book the assistance they need.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>We believe that train operators themselves are best placed to determine how staff are deployed to best meet the needs of their passengers.<\/p>"}
