Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many responses to the Northern Rail and TransPennine Express franchise consultation (a) supported and (b) opposed driver-only operation.
This question was answered on 27th January 2015
We did not ask specific questions about Driver Only Operation (DOO) in the Northern and TransPennine Express consultation, so analysis of responses relating to DOO has not been carried out in this way. A range of views on DOO were expressed by those who responded to the consultation. We also received 9,315 identical postcards from RMT members that highlighted concerns about a variety of franchise-related areas, including DOO.
