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 that London Underground Ltd has advertised (internally) posts for mobile Station Supervisors covering several stations. We further note that we referred this issue to ACAS several months ago, and that LUL has finally agreed to hold discussions at ACAS, and to not fill these positions until these talks are concluded.
This is a 'red line' issue for this union; we oppose mobile station supervision and insist that every London Underground station must have a
Supervisor on duty, on site, at all times. This is essential for both adequate and safe staffing of stations, and for the working conditions of other grades, including drivers and service control who may need the assistance of an onsite supervisor, and cleaners and engineering staff working on the stations.

Should the talks at ACAS not result in management withdrawing its plans for mobile station supervision, this union will be in dispute with the company.
A report of the talks at ACAS is to be placed in front of us.
London Transport Regional Council, branches and all London Underground representatives to be advised.
