The Government has no plans to devolve responsibilities in relation to Network Rail’s delivery of the current five-year Rail Investment Strategy (RIS). We are working closely with the Welsh Government on the development of options for the next RIS for the period 2019-2024.

There are no current plans to restructure Network Rail.
