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 report that London Transport intends to make significant cuts to staffing at the LT Museum. The Museum has suffered funding cuts from this vicious Coalition government, but our members, the Museum's visitors and the cultural value of the Museum's work should not be made to suffer.
We resolve to play a full part in the campaign against these cuts, and support its demand that TfL 'open the books' so that we can identify opportunities for avoiding cuts.
We instruct the General Secretary to:
- support and mobilise for the lobby of the TfL Board planned for 12 December.
- seek to get a Mayor's question asked, a resolution put to the GLA, and an Early Day Motion tabled in Parliament against these cuts
- support any existing petition against the cuts, or in the absence of such a petition, establish our own
- offer full support to our local representative on this issue
- obtain a report on the progress of negotiations
- seek to work with the TSSA on this issue
London Transport Regional Council and branches and to be advised.
