Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps London North Eastern Railway has taken to assess whether Rail Gourmet follow appropriate bullying and harassment policies.
This contract commenced before LNER began operating on the East Coast Main Line. LNER policy is to undertake detailed checks to ensure all relevant policies are in place before we enter into contracts with suppliers. This includes ensuring suppliers accept our code of conduct which includes bullying and harassment.
