===Monitoring Network Rail's performance===
The [[Office of Rail and Road]] (ORR) monitors Network Rail's performance on a continuous basis against targets established by the regulatory authority in the most recent access charges review (2003), against obligations in the company's network licence and against forecasts in its own business plan. If performance is poor, the company will face criticism and possible enforcement action from its commercial customers (under their contracts) and from the ORR (enforcing the company's network licence). It may also be criticised by its members in general meeting.{{citation needed|date=February 2016}}

In the annual report 2014/15, the ORR reported that the [[Public Performance Measure]] (PPM) was 89.6%, 1.4 percentage points (pp) below target in England and Wales, and PPM in Scotland was 90.5%, 1.5pp below its regulatory performance target of 92%.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://orr.gov.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0019/18154/annual-report-2014-15-web.pdf |title=ORR Annual report 2014–15 |date=11 June 2015 |url-status=live |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160304083845/http://orr.gov.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0019/18154/annual-report-2014-15-web.pdf |archive-date=4 March 2016 }}</ref>
