NIGHT TUBE ISSUES, PICCADILLY LINE - LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/14/2)

There had been two issues affecting our members on the Night Tube - “Night Tube Staff Lone Working” and “Meal Relief Point, Arnos Grove Depot”.

BREAKDOWN IN INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS, TRAIN OPERATORS, VICTORIA LINE - LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/14/2)

I advised you previously that the NEC had instructed me to obtain a report from the Regional Organiser with regards to the local meetings that were taking place that would hopefully resolve this dispute over the need to improve working relationships between RMT members and Victoria Line management (Ref: IR/399/19, 2nd October 2019).
