    require operators of relevant services to provide the information specified in the principal Regulations at an additional stage of the “passenger journey”, namely 24 to 48 hours before the relevant service is scheduled to depart, and

  2. (b)

    specify, in more detail, the information to be provided and the manner in which it must be provided by an operator in order to comply with regulation 3(1) of the principal Regulations.
