Amendment 1—Rebecca Evans

Delete all after 'National Assembly for Wales' and replace with:

1. Welcomes the £5bn investment being made in the Welsh rail network over the next 15 years including more than £800m in rolling stock.

2. Notes the UK-wide challenges facing the rail industry in relation to PRM compliance, impacting franchises across the UK.

3. Recognises one of the main reasons for rolling stock shortages is the UK Government’s short-sighted decision to truncate its electrification programme, including to Swansea, leading to delays in the availability of rolling stock.

4. Calls on the UK Government to ensure the general election does not interfere with requests for PRM derogations to allow additional capacity to run on the network for a short period into 2020.

5. Notes the rolling stock system across the UK is broken and calls for the UK Government to work with the devolved administrations to develop a new model.
