Circular No. NP/208/16

1st September 2016


Dear Colleague,

Say NO to Driver Only Operation –
Keep the Guard on the Train - Keep the Train Safe!
Campaign for SAFER SCOTTISH TRAINS - Abellio Scotrail

The Union is holding a protest outside the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh on Thursday 8th September 2016 to coincide with Scottish First Ministers Questions at Holyrood.

I would urge all Members and Branches and Regional Councils to support this event. This is a legitimate use of Branch funds.

Please meet outside Edinburgh Waverley Station (Market Street Entrance) at 11.00 hours prompt on Thursday 8th September 2016.

Please bring RMT flags and banners etc. although some will be available on day. Campaign   t-shirts should also be worn, although if you go into the parliament they may need to be covered with a coat or jacket (We have a limited number of tickets for First Ministers Question time).  

Should you require further information regarding this matter, please contact Craig Johnston by emailing c.johnston@rmt.org.uk or telephoning 07764 796 222.  

Yours sincerely,
 
Mick Cash
General Secretary
