The branch wishes to thank all the members that made time to attend the EGM.

After a good comradely and constructive discussion the decision was made to accept the heads of terms and stand down the scheduled eight days of action (Wednesday 24th to Friday 3rd October).

This does NOT mean that the branch will not re-schedule action if it believes that the employer is not following the heads of terms or members are threatened with compulsory redundancies in Phase Three.
These heads of terms go a very significant way to reaching the branches aim of no compulsory redundancies.

But as a branch we still have much work to do both in protecting our members who are/will be at risk, and also about challenging the employer on both the direction of its strategy and its behaviour.

The branch also passed a motion expressing support and a donation of £500 for the University of Leicester UCU branch in their dispute.
