Your Branch Officials have made the decision to make tomorrows Branch Meeting, 27th July 2022, a Hybrid Zoom meeting. This is due to the National Rail strike affecting some TOCs.
We understand some members and reps who live outside of London would struggle to attend. Therefore we will use a laptop to make the meeting Hybrid.

Tube workers will take strike action in an ongoing dispute over pensions and jobs on August 19.
The latest call for action has been prompted by TfL's refusal to share the details of a draft government proposal they received regarding funding of the transport system in the capital, in secret and without any discussion with their recognised trade unions.

Dear colleague
Imposition of Night Tube Duties, Train Operators - London Underground
I am pleased to report that, following over 20 sessions at ACAS and with London Underground management having previously shown no sign of shifting, progress has now been made on the Night Tube dispute. As you will know, this dispute began after management ripped up agreements that Night Tube duties would not be imposed on members and that the service would be run on a voluntary basis.

The RMT National Executive Committee has taken the decision to accept an offer on Night Tube from London Underground, to agree a minimum number on each line who wish to preference Night Tube duties. RMT's Train Functional Council will meet to discuss the implementation of this and assist local reps in monitoring of all Night Tube duties being carried out by volunteers.
