Office of Rail Regulation

On 1 April 2006, in addition to our role as economic regulator, ORR became
the health and safety regulator for the rail industry when responsibility
was transferred from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). This transfer
of responsibility was given effect in the Railways Act 2005.
