In the parliamentary meeting, which will also be attended by Secretary of State for Railways Wilma Mansveld, the agenda will be the status of Dutch Railways NS and State Railways Management ProRail in the long run.

It is stated that both institutions will enter a new period after 2015 and will look into the management and management of railways with new agreements.

Among the issues to be discussed at the meeting today will be whether the NS, which was penalized by 2,75 million euros last year and subjected to new sanctions, has implemented certain requirements.

On the other hand, another important issue to be discussed will be the security issue in the railways.

Finally, Mansveld stated that 2 billion euros was allocated for the allocation of the last European Railway Safety System (ERTMS). In previous estimates on this subject, it was estimated that 900 million euros would be spent for the system. This situation caused a debate in the parliament.

Stientje van Veldhoven, a member of the Democrats 66 (D66) Party, said on Monday that NS should only deal with trains, lines and trains, and companies operating on railways should have equal rights.
