Answer

The Government’s published its £44.1 billion funding settlement for Network Rail's operation, maintenance and renewal of the railway in the next Control Period on 1 December 2022.

It is for Network Rail, under the oversight of the independent regulator, the Office of Rail and Road, in determining the best way to allocate this funding across the railways of England and Wales.
