Minister of State (Department for Transport)
My Department does not gather or hold data on safety incidents that have occurred on the rail network involving sub-contracted workers. The Rail Safety and Standards Board (RSSB) record this data for the mainline railway in Great Britain via its Safety Management Intelligence System.
