The question
To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answer to question S2W-10174 by Nicol Stephen on 27 September 2004, what information it has on what proportion of Network Rail’s spending will go towards the rail network in Scotland.
The answer
The cost of operating, maintaining and renewing the railway infrastructure is an operational matter for Network Rail.
The Office of the Rail Regulator determines Network Rail’s expenditure on a GB basis. Network Rail’s Business Plan contains information on planned expenditure across each of the 26 Network Rail strategic routes which make up the GB rail network.
The information requested is not held by the Executive, but significant work will be carried out on this issue in the context of the rail review proposals to devolve further rail powers in Scotland.
