Monitoring and reviewing railway markets

We are consulting on our proposed publication of guidance regarding our approach to monitoring and reviewing markets.

The key purpose of the proposed guidance is to assist businesses and individuals operating in the railways sectors to understand our general approach to monitoring and reviewing railway markets and how and in what circumstances we intend to use our powers to:

• make directions to correct market distortion or other undesirable developments in markets
• to undertake market studies and make market investigation references to the Competition and Markets Authority
