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 note the correspondence from ASLEF. We instruct the General Secretary to reply, advising ASLEF that RMT is campaigning against the introduction of Automatic Door Opening on the Victoria Line and urging ASLEF to join us in this campaign. Any further correspondence from ASLEF, and reports of local contact with ASLEF on this matter, is to be placed in front of us.
We further note that London Underground may be planning to introduce ‘driverless shunting’ on the Victoria Line. This would be a very dangerous development, worsening safety standards in depots, leading to possible job losses, and representing a further step towards ‘driverless trains’. We instruct the General Secretary to obtain a report on this from our LU Trains Upgrades Representative as a matter of urgency, and to place this in front of us.
London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.
