To: The Secretary All Branches & Regional Councils/
Virgin East Coast Main Line
Dear colleague,
East Coast Main Line Section of the Railways Pension Scheme - Pensions Committee / RMT Appointee Vacancy
Please be advised that due the resignation of the RMT member on the East Coast Main Line section of the Railways Pension Scheme (RPS) Pensions Committee a vacancy now exists.
While the administrators (RPMI) have requested that the RMT appoints a candidate by 28th April 2017 this date has been expended.
Therefore to ensure that the RMT have a voice on this import committee I would request that if you have a member of the East Coast Main Line section of the RPS in your branch who is interested in standing for this position they need to send in the attached nomination form no later than Friday 5th May 2017.
In the event of more than one member standing a ballot amongst RMT members employed by East Coast Main Line will be held. Ballot papers will be sent out on Monday 8th May 2017 and the ballot will close on Wednesday 31st May 2017.
I would ask that interested members complete an election address as this will need to be included in the ballot papers pack in the event of an election taking place.
Please send nominations to Paul Norris, RMT Pensions Officer, Unity House, 39 Chalton Street, London NW1 1JD or at p.norris@rmt.org.uk.
Please find attached Regulations of Business for this pension committee for your information.
I will keep you informed of developments.
Yours sincerely,
Mick Cash
General Secretary
