Channel Tunnel Rail Link

Volume 699: debated on Wednesday 27 February 2008

asked Her Majesty's Government:

At what date the infrastructure managers of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link Section 1 became liable to publish a network statement under Clause 12 of the Railways Infrastructure (Access and Management) Regulations 2005 (SI 2005/3049); at what dates the original statement was updated and extended to Section 2; and where the documents are published.[HL1938]

Under The Railways Infrastructure (Access and Management) Regulations 2005, CTRL became liable to publish a network statement in November 2006.

The first network statement was published for consultation at this time by Network Rail (CTRL) Ltd, the independent allocation body and charging body, and covers both CTRL Sections 1 and 2.

The current network statement, aspects of which continue to be the subject of discussion with the industry, is available on HS1's website (www.highspeed1. com—click downloads then click CTRL network statement). The network statement can also be obtained from Network Rail (CTRL) Ltd.
