Resolution: Service Control Apprentices

Submitted by Admin on 2 November, 2009 - 14:21

This resolution, submitted by Neasden branch and seconded by Hammersmith & City branch, was passed unanimously at the November 2009 meeting of the Regional Council.

This Branch condemns the callous attitude shown by Management, particularly HR, towards apprentices and ex-apprentices and other groups of members in Service Control. The Management aim is to redeploy these members despite being promised jobs in Service Control.

SEPTEMBER’S RESOLUTIONS

National Young Members Advisory Committee – Formation as per Rule Book

The General Secretary refused to accept this resolution for the agenda of the Council of Executives, as it attempted to “instruct” them to ensure that the union’s rules are carried out and a Young Members’ Advisory Committee properly established. Recommendation: we resubmit this resolution with the phrase “This branch instructs” replaced by “This Regional Council requests”.
