Question Asked

Asked by:
Lilian Greenwood (Labour)

Answer

The Department is continuing to develop its response to the Law Commission’s recommendations on the reform of level crossing legislation in conjunction with stakeholders.

Our Level Crossing Reform Action Plan, copies of which are available in the House library, explains the steps that we are taking and includes an indicative timetable for completion of this process.

The Action Plan notes that we expect to consult on proposals in those areas where we believe further policy and legal investigation was required during the summer.
