All the franchises except Merseyrail commenced on 5 January 1997. Merseyrail will complete at a later date.
Therefore there is an overlap between the amount paid to BR and the franchise payment year 1.
Payments to the Franchising Director appear as negative amounts.
All payments are real amounts.
Advisor costs are correct to December 1996.
