Periodic Review 2013 (PR13) draft determination conferences

Event details

Overview

We will be publishing our draft determination for the 2013 Periodic Review (PR13) on 12 June 2013. This will set out our draft conclusions on key elements of railway performance, investment and delivery for the next five years (1 April 2014-31 March 2019). The draft determination will include details of what we expect Network Rail to deliver and at what cost, as well as set out a package of whole industry incentives to encourage closer working across the sector.

Our draft determination is the culmination of extensive analysis and consultation with industry, funders and other stakeholders. We will be seeking views on the draft determination before we publish the final determination in October 2013.

Programme

We will be holding three conferences to discuss the draft determination with stakeholders. At these we will set out our key draft conclusions for the periodic review. The conference programme will highlight the differences the rail industry can expect to see in the next five years and what PR13 will deliver for passengers and freight customers. Specific topics will include:

• Efficient expenditure
• Outputs
• Incentives
• Financial framework
• Access charges
• Whole sector issues
