PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Network Rail (2 June 2015)

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether the Shareholder Executive's high-level Board effectiveness review of Network Rail has been completed; and if he will publish the conclusions of that review.

Asked by:
Lilian Greenwood (Labour)

In the last Parliament, the Shareholder Executive conducted a high-level review of Network Rail’s governance which considered, among other things, the option of a Special Director being appointed to serve on the board. The review is part of advice for the ongoing formulation of government policy and therefore there are no plans to publish it. However I am considering all of its findings and will make any relevant decisions in due course.
