Any outcome will seek to secure the best value for money for the taxpayer, and be in the best interests of rail passengers.</p><p> </p><p>All options for rail services in the next East Midlands rail franchise are subject to analysis of the potential benefits and our consultation with stakeholders, which closed on 11 October 2017. Thus, no decisions have been made on rail services that will be specified for the next franchise. The next franchise is planned to start in August 2019. Invitations to Tender (ITT) are due to be issued to potential bidders later this year. The ITT will set out the minimum requirements and provide the baseline that we expect the next franchise to build on.</p> answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Joseph Johnson question first answered 13/03/2018 16:07:43 answering member 4039 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Marylebone
