What is a National Executive Committee decision?
This article is an 'executive decision' which has been written by the RMT National Executive Committee. The National Executive is the union's governing body in between AGMs. Its decisions set out what the union will do on a particular issue.
These decisions can often be brief, and may be one of several passed over a period of time. To get a better understanding or find out more information about what the RMT is doing, speak to your rep or attend your branch or Regional Council meeting.
We note the correspondence from London Underground Ltd.
LUL’s letter confirms our suspicions that it still intends to increase automation in order to attack jobs and conditions, and we reaffirm our determination to resist this.
We further note reports that some testing of technology to facilitate driverless trains may have taken place at Wembley during the first weekend of November. We instruct the General Secretary to obtain an urgent report on this, and to place it in front of us.
We further note that the correspondence from London Underground indicates that our decision of the GGC of 25 October on DEFENDING LONDON UNDERGROUND JOBS AND CONDITIONS (LUL/15/4) has not been carried out in full.
We instruct the General Secretary that any similar meetings with London Underground Directors outside the Machinery of Negotiation must:
- be advised to the GGC in advance and an instruction obtained
- be attended by the appropriate officer(s) and representatives(s) ie. at least one officer (lead officer and/or AGS) and at least one representative (GGC and/or Company Council)
- discuss issues to be agreed in advance by the GGC
- be followed by a written report to the GGC
We reaffirm the importance of our agreed Machinery of Negotiation.
We merge this file with the file DEFENDING LONDON UNDERGROUND JOBS AND CONDITIONS (LUL/15/4)
London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.
