Below is a question-and-answer briefing produced by LUL management to explain pay rates for working on New Year's Eve.
LUL produced this Q&A a year ago, and the only thing that has changed since then is that there are no longer payments for Operational Duty Managers.

These Q& A’s must be used in conjunction with the current Pay Arrangements for New Years Eve Payments.

Dear Colleagues,
CONSULTATION AND BRIEFING FORUM FOR 2012 OLYMPICS
LUL have advised me of their belief that that there would be a benefit in having a forum, separate from the Company Council, whereat the Unions could be regularly briefed about the 2012 developments and, where appropriate, consulted over relevant issues.

Dear Colleagues,
LUL ATTENDANCE POLICY
Examples of Management ignoring or twisting clear policies in relation to attendance have recently been brought to my attention.
We have made it clear that we expect Management to abide by their own policies and have listed a series of serious instances where management seem to have flagrantly breeched the rules. It is unacceptable that policies are ignored and all members should be advised of the seriousness of this matter, which could lead to a major dispute.

RMT press release, issued today
BRITAIN’S BIGGEST rail union RMT called on the government today to intervene to prevent private rail operators hitting passengers with huge fare rises in the new year with some tickets going up by more than double the rate of inflation.
RMT general secretary Bob Crow said that the privateers and their shareholders were forcing commuters to pay the price of the recession.
The Employment Rights Act 1996 gives employees the right to time off if something “unexpected” happens to their arrangements for caring for a dependant. But your employer may suggest that the word "unexpected" means that if you had more than a couple of days' notice, then you do not have the right to the time off. But a recent legal case has established that “unexpected” can include a situation in which the employee had two weeks’ notice of a change to their childcare arrangements.
