TfL Ref: FOI-2618-2425

 

Thank you for your request which we received on 15 November 2024, asking for information about the cost of staff and nominee Oyster passes.

 

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy. Unfortunately, we don’t hold the information you have requested. 

 

There is no cost to TfL because the number of journeys made is a tiny proportion of the 13m journeys made every day on TfL-run transport, meaning no additional services need to be operated. All TfL employees and their nominees are expected to act as ambassadors for TfL, helping ensure the security of the system and helping assist our customers where necessary.

 

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

 

Yours sincerely
