The Programme for Government sets out the Welsh Government's priorities, but responsibility for specifying and managing Great Western Railway (GWR) services rests with the UK Government.

The Welsh Government remains committed to growing Pay As You Go (PAYG) as an affordable and convenient way to travel by rail across Wales, building on its successful rollout across South Wales and its recent expansion to stations in North Wales.

Although the current unavailability of PAYG on GWR services is frustrating for passengers, Transport for Wales has made encouraging progress in discussions with both GWR and the Department for Transport, and it is hoped this will enable GWR to participate in PAYG in the future.

The Welsh Government and Transport for Wales are also engaging with the UK Government on the establishment of Great British Railways to secure the best outcomes for Wales. These discussions include ticketing reform and the further development of PAYG.
