I apologise, but I will not be able to stay for the whole debate. Like me, in the past 24 hours the right hon. Gentleman
will have received in his inbox an update on Southern’s performance improvement plan; it has clearly been a bumpy ride.
Another thing that passengers want is decent compensation. Does the right hon. Gentleman think that paying compensation after a 15-minute delay, rather than a 30-minute delay, would be appropriate? Does he agree that getting the train companies to publicise how people can claim compensation when their train is running late, or at the stations where they are arriving late, might be a good way to improve passengers’ views of Southern and Network Rail?
