Review Of Disciplinary And Grievance Procedure – London Underground

We note the resolution from our London Transport Regional Council, and the proof that has emerged
that People Management Advice Specialists (PMAs) have interfered in the issuing of disciplinary
sanctions against our members employed by London Underground Ltd in breach of the LUL
disciplinary procedure and of natural justice.

Accordingly, we instruct the General Secretary to provide all appropriate support in the particular case
referred to, and to write immediately to London Underground Ltd demanding:

  • that all disciplinaries are postponed until a full investigation is carried out;
  • that the PMA involved has no further involvement with disciplinaries;
  • a review of all sanctions and PMA involvement with disciplinaries;
  • that PMAs are no longer allowed to sit in on disciplinaries.

We refer this to the Southern Sub-Committee for further examination and report.

London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.
