Hello and welcome to our April newsletter. March was a busy month across both economic, and health and safety matters. First off, we published our report into the costs and benefits of health and safety interventions. This sets out our recommendations to help improve how the industry makes these interventions effectively and efficiently on the rail network.  This has been a truly industry-wide project, and I am grateful to all duty holders and other organisations who engaged with us.

Fake reviews, dodgy photos, and out-of-date information can make it feel like you're rolling the dice when booking a restaurant.
