The RMT have accepted an Olympic Offer from Tube Lines worth up to £850. A decision was made on the 28 June at the unions recent Annual General Meeting.

“That in light of the report from the Regional Organiser and taking account of the recommendation of the representatives we recommend acceptance of the offer and instruct the GC to inform Tube Lines of our acceptance.”

The GGC have decided that the RMT will not agree any breaches to the framework agreement either forced or voluntary.

RMT General Grades Committee decision:

We note the report from our lead officer, that Tube Lines cancelled the Company Council meeting due to take place today, apparently on the request of London Underground Ltd. We suggest to LUL that if it wishes to run Tube Lines, then it acquire Tube Lines and fully integrate it.

RMT General Grades Committee decision:

We note the report from our lead officer and reject Tube Lines’ offer on the following grounds:

1. The company’s proposals would leave some of our members with no annual leave during the summer school holidays, resulting in many children not having a family summer holiday this year.
2. The company’s offer applies only to operational staff, excluding other staff who will also be affected by the Olympics, and the company threatens to halve the financial offer should it apply to all staff.
