Future Labour government will include new Railways Act in first King's Speech after election
Labour will lay out leglislation to nationalise rail in the first King’s Speech Under the plans, the legislation will set the legal framework to enable a future Labour government to allow existing rail contracts to expire and be taken under the control of a new arm’s length body, called Great British Railways.
The proposals will be backed by a new consumer watchdog, called the Passenger Standards Authority, will also be established to hold GBR to account and deliver improved outcomes for rail users.The plans draw a significant dividing line between Labour and the Conservatives ahead of the general election, with party insiders claiming the plans will deliver savings to the taxpayer of up to £2.1bn once it is fully implemented.
Mr Williams said: “I welcome Labour’s intention, if they are elected, to take forward the substance of my recommendations to deliver a better railway for passengers and freight by creating a rail body with an integrated profit and loss account, at arm’s length from government.”
