Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will review compensation arrangements for passengers using Southern Railway's Metro line who have been affected by the recent disruption to rail services at London Bridge station.

I have previously set out that I am considering the case but I cannot make any guarantees at this point. To provide additional compensation above Passenger’s Charter arrangements to passengers would place a large additional financial burden on this and future major projects which would in turn increase the cost to taxpayers.
