The Network Rail Trustee Board consists of 8 members of which 4 are employer Trustees, 3 are Member Nominated Trustees who represent the RMT, TSSA and Unite, and 1 Eligible Member Trustee. As I indicated above it is Eligible Member’s seat which will become vacant from 31st March 2016.

Pension management will shortly be sending out the attached letter and information to members of the NRDC and CARE schemes advertising the vacancy. You will note that interested candidates will need to get the support of 15 active or/and pensioner members of the NRDC or the CARE schemes.  The closing date for nominations is 29th January 2016.
