That we note the report from the Lead Officer regarding last Friday’s members and reps meeting; where the view was that we should suspend the strike action for tomorrow due to progress made at ACAS, with the company now seemingly abiding by agreements and implementing them.

That we note that the talks at ACAS have been fraught and the contempt for our members shown by the company and their internal imbalance and inability to address
the issues of this dispute.

We also note the view of members expressed at the joint branch meeting last week;where they voted to put down more strike action.

That we note the request from the company to attend ACAS; but that they have put nothing forward to resolve this dispute.

The strike remains on; and we look forward to receiving a meaningful resolution from the company to be discussed at ACAS at the earliest opportunity from Monday.

We congratulate our negotiations team and Lead Officer on achieving vast movement from the company in all four items of this dispute.

None of this would have been remotely possible without the crushing pressure of the strike mandate and proposed strike dates which our Train Operator Members in both Finsbury Park and Piccadilly & District West branches delivered.
