The date that ATOC think each Section of the Routeing Guide was last revised is shown on the NRG home page. But, as with much of the railway fares system, this is not always accurate.when was the most recent revision please,
For example, examining the Properties of the National Routeing Guide in Detail pdf shows that it was last modified on 17 January 2003, not 24 February 2010.
The latest information I have on consultation over NRG changes is now 2 years old.who was consulted on the changes?
Perhaps it's time to submit another FoI request.David Williams DfT said:14 January 2010
Changes to the (NRG) may be needed from time to time, if errors are discovered, new rail routes opened or reopened, additional routes are to be allowed, or train operators propose to disallow a route. The ATOC document, the Ticketing & Settlement Agreement (TSA) allows changes to permitted routes to be made. The TSA requires ATOC to obtain approval from the Secretary of State for any changes, and that the SoS consults with Passenger Focus to ensure that passengers' routing flexibility is preserved.
Approximately 20,000 flows were amended in and around 2001/2 through this full change process. Since the Department for Transport have been responsible for the change approval process to the NRG no such requests have been received at all from ATOC in the intervening period.
