Ministerial Statement on Emergency Measures Agreements [Transport Scotland]





Date: 20/09/2021

The Scottish Government has announced plans to extend the current Emergency Measures Agreements (EMAs) for the ScotRail and Caledonian Sleeper franchises.

The EMAs which were put in place in March 2021 will now be in place until December 2021.

These agreements will carry on to help to secure the sustainability of Scotlands rail services through this transitional period.

Train operators will continue to receive payments to cover operating costs as necessary because of reduced revenues with a small incentive payment linked strictly to good performance.
