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 welcome the report from our Regional Organiser.
We note that LUL presented its three-month review of its detrainment procedure to our Trains Safety Council representatives on Monday 1 July. The company has made no progress in achieving a technical solution to minimising overcarries, and continues to deploy station staff as part of its detrainment procedure.
It is therefore clear that the work being carried out by station staff is permanent. It is thus no longer appropriate for this to be done by the Special Requirements Team; rostored station staff posts should be restored.
We instruct the General Secretary to raise this urgently with the employer in the most appropriate forum.
Further, we continue to have concerns about the procedure being used, and instruct our health and safety representatives to take part in Workplace Risk Assessments only for procedures that are in line with the LU Rule Book.
London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.
