I hold regular discussions with the Welsh Government and Transport for Wales on rail services in Wales, including the new Wales and Borders franchise. I have also met with the Director of Keolis this week, who have recently taken over the running of the train service in Wales.<\/p>

The devolution of the Franchise is an example of effective co-operation between the Welsh and UK Governments.<\/p>

The Child Maintenance Service has a wide range of strong enforcement powers, including applying to the court to remove a non-paying parent\u2019s driving licence, order the sale of property, commit them to prison, or disqualify them from holding or obtaining a passport.<\/p>
