We note the information on file regarding the history of the ownership of this contract. This shows the succession of private companies which have profited from this area of work only to dispose of it once they lose interest. This reaffirms our view that contracting-out should be ended and all Transport for London activities returned to direct TfL control.

We instruct the General Secretary to circulate this information to our London Transport Regional Council and branches. We further instruct the General Secretary to place in front of us a report on progress with carrying out the other instructions in our previous decision G1557 12 September 2013.

London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.
