Save ticket offices on LUL - email enquiries@travelwatch.org.uk

Submitted by Eamonn Lynch on 6 January, 2016 - 16:37

London Underground have failed to properly conduct a public consultation exercise over the closure of  ticket offices on the part of the network previously run by Silverlink, now LOROL.

They have set up an online email system to try and convince the regulators they are engaging with the public.

The RMT are absolutely against the closing of ticket offices and have conducted a near 2 year campaign to keep them.

We want to encourage all our members and their friends and families to take part in the consultation exercise.

EVERY JOB MATTERS – DEFENDING JOBS ON LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/14/5)
 
Further to my previous Circular (IR/299/15, 4th December 2015) there remains a number of areas of concern over London Underground’s Fit for the Future Stations (FFFS) proposals and the Lead Officer has written to LUL seeking assurances that there will be no imposition of a new framework agreement, that staff will not be forced to sign new contracts and that rosters will not be imposed. At the time of writing we have not yet received a response from LUL. 
 

RMT calls new action over Tube cuts

Submitted by Admin on 22 December, 2015 - 15:05

We note the report on file from the Lead Officer and we instruct the General Secretary to instruct our Station Grades members to carry out an overtime ban from 05:30 hours on Sunday 3rd January 2016 until further notice. And to refuse (from the date of this decision) to sign any contract or letter regarding working hours or agreements ( with the exception of  members on Fixed Term Contracts who should sign permanent contract) We resolve to take the struggle for every job matters into the new year  until our just demands on pay and conditions are met.
