The revocations in this Statutory Instrument (SI) include:

• legislation prescribing the format of rail accident investigation reports, which is overly bureaucratic and removes flexibility from the Rail Accidents Investigation Branch to tailor investigations to a particular circumstance

• provisions relating to EU rail technical standards which are no longer relevant following EU exit

• duplication and overly prescriptive requirements that apply to the access arrangements which govern operator access to the track and rail facilities.
