Title: New Delay Repay code of practice
Post by: stuving on December 20, 2021, 16:39:33
The ORR held a consultation last year (which I don't remember) on improving access to delay compensation. This has now got to the stage where a new code of practice for Delay Repay has been issued, and a licence condition will be imposed from next April to enforce it.

The ORR page on this (https://www.orr.gov.uk/search-consultations/consultation-improving-access-delay-compensation) contains the CoP itself (https://www.orr.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2021-11/delay-compensation-code-of-practice.pdf), as well as the original proposals for the consultation. The CoP concentrates on informing passengers and processing claims, and runs to 15 pages.

Disappointing that there isn't a provision for treating the delay caused by half-length trains as half of the interval to the next full-length train.
