Speaker: Lesley Stephenson, Rail Registrar, CAHA Registrar Ltd


In the years surrounding the privatisation of the Rail Industry, the CAHA Registrar was established by the DfT. Alternative Dispute Resolution has played a major part in resolving disputes between licensed rail companies (rail passenger services operations and freight operators). All public and employer liability claims for damages brought against licensed rail companies are subject to the Claims Allocation & Handling Agreement (CAHA). CAHA is an effective way to speed up the claims management process and keep litigation costs to a minimum for all participants.”
