Rail union slam ‘shambolic management’ of railways following report that finds limited progress on government reforms
UNIONS attacked the government’s “shambolic management” of the railways following a damning report by the Whitehall spending watchdog.
The National Audit Office (NAO) said most of the work by the Department for Transport (DfT) to overhaul Britain’s railways is delayed, with only “limited progress” on transformation plans published in 2021.
The majority of the changes and expected savings are not expected to happen until “at least the next parliament,” it added.
