Ballot For Industrial Action in Response To Depot Closure

We note the correspondence from London Underground Ltd dated 8 July 2013. We instruct the General Secretary to reply, explaining that the letter of 28 June does not provide us with the clarity and assurances that we seek. Accordingly, and in line with our previous decision Gww 2 July 2013, we instruct the General Secretary to proceed immediately with a ballot for strikes and action short of strikes, to a timescale to be agreed with our LU Engineering branch. A personal letter is to be sent to all members strongly urging them to vote Yes to both questions.

We further note that our lead officer is pursuing talks, and instruct the General Secretary to place a report on these talks in front of us.

London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.
