About ORR

​​On 5 November 2025, the UK Government laid the Railways Bill (the Bill) in Parliament. ​The Bill will have a significant impact on ORR’s responsibilities, leading to a change in our overall role. ​

The register of interests of ORR Board and Executive team members is reviewed annually and updated each time an individual's interests change.

The board has four standing committees and their terms of reference are included in the board's rules of procedure.

We are governed by a board responsible for setting our strategy and overseeing its delivery.
