We note the report from our Regional Organiser, advising that the closure of Whitechapel ticket office has been put back to July 2014 at the earliest. We note that this is only one year away, and resolve that our campaigning to stop this closure will continue.
We note the report and correspondence on file, and are disgusted by Trainpeople’s failure to pay its former employees' wages in full. The agency is legally obliged to do so, regardless of whether and when the hirer company, London Underground Ltd, paid fees to the agency, Trainpeople.co.uk. We therefore instruct the General Secretary to provide these members with all the documentation in our possession that may assist with their legal case.
We note the correspondence from London Underground Ltd. We also note that a meeting is to take place between the unions and the employer on Wednesday 10 July, and instruct the General Secretary to place a report of this meeting in front of us as soon as practical thereafter.
We welcome the report from our Regional Organiser.
We note that LUL presented its three-month review of its detrainment procedure to our Trains Safety Council representatives on Monday 1 July. The company has made no progress in achieving a technical solution to minimising overcarries, and continues to deploy station staff as part of its detrainment procedure.
It is therefore clear that the work being carried out by station staff is permanent. It is thus no longer appropriate for this to be done by the Special Requirements Team; rostored station staff posts should be restored.

Many of you will be aware that Whitechapel Underground station is undergoing a huge refurbishment, which will see the station serving thousands more customers each year, as a result of the Crossrail project. However, London Underground has announced plans to remove and close the Ticket Office from July 2014, which will also result in the loss of SAMF positions.

Tube union RMT today pledged to step up the fight to stop the carve up of the Lillie Bridge tube maintenance depot as Mayor Boris Johnson sneaked out an announcement late last night that gives the green light to the demolition of Earls Court and the surrounding area and its conversion into a yuppies playground by Tory Councillors hell bent on the social cleansing of whole swathes of West London.
