(a)all the relevant railway passenger services on a particular line or from a particular station fall within subsection (2);
(b)a proposal for the discontinuance of all the relevant railway passenger services provided on that line, or from that station, is made, in accordance with section 41, by a railway funding authority; and
(c)the proposal is not a proposal for a minor modification.
(2)A service falls within this subsection if it is—
(a)a franchised service; or
(b)a secured service.
(3)The references in subsection (1) to relevant railway passenger services are references to railway passenger services that are not—
(a)experimental passenger services;
(b)services involving travel through the Channel Tunnel;
(c)services that are provided otherwise than as regular scheduled services for the line or station in question; or
(d)services excluded from the application of this section by an order under section 38.
(4)The railway funding authority making the proposal must—
(a)give notice of its proposal to the national authority, if it is not itself that authority;
(b)carry out a consultation under Schedule 7 about the proposal; and
(c)after carrying out that consultation, either withdraw the proposal or refer the proposal (with or without modifications) to the Office of Rail Regulation.
(5)A notice to the national authority under subsection (4)(a) must set out—
(a)particulars of the proposal for the closure including, in particular—
(i)the services to which the proposal relates; and
(ii)the proposal date; and
(b)a summary of the results of the assessment carried out in accordance with subsection (6).
(6)Before—
(a)giving a notice under subsection (4)(a), in a case where it is not itself the national authority, or
(b)in any other case, carrying out the consultation under subsection (4)(b),
the railway funding authority making the proposal must carry out an assessment of whether the proposal satisfies the criteria set out in the relevant part of the closures guidance; and that assessment must be carried out in accordance with that guidance.
(7)If the franchise agreement or any other arrangement under or in accordance with which the services are being provided does not require the services to be provided until the end of the interim period, the national authority must secure the provision of the services until the end of that period.
(8)If on a reference under subsection (4)(c) the Office of Rail Regulation issues a closure non-ratification notice, the national authority must secure the provision of the services to which the proposal relates after the end of the interim period.
(9)The duty of the national authority under subsection (8)—
(a)is discharged without its taking further steps so long as the provisions of the franchise agreement or other arrangements, in force at the time of the proposal, so far as they require the provision of the services, continue in force without modification; and
(b)ceases if the services begin to be provided under a franchise agreement.
(10)Nothing in subsection (7) or (8) requires the Secretary of State to secure the provision of a Welsh service unless it appears to him that he will be receiving funds from the National Assembly for Wales that are reasonably equivalent to those provided by the Assembly in respect of the service previously provided.

(ii)relevant cross-border services,
means the Scottish Ministers; and
(b)in any other case, means the Secretary of State.

(a)does not begin or end or otherwise make a scheduled call in Wales; and
(b)is a service in respect of which more funding is provided by the Scottish Ministers than the Secretary of State.

Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
