Answered by Hyslop, Fiona - Minister for Transport
I have asked my officials at Transport Scotland’s to engage with British Transport Police, ScotRail, Scottish Rail Holdings, Transport Focus and Trade Unions, amongst other organisations to ensure that all views held on the existing alcohol ban on ScotRail trains are given due consideration.
Once advice has been provided to me and a decision made, the Parliament will be informed of the outcome.
