Network Rail: Trade Unions
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions she has had with Network Rail on the recognition of trade unions at its subsidiary Platform 4.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
Trade Union (TU) recognition is a matter for the employer to discuss with the TU.
Platform 4 is now the employer following a TUPE process. While TU recognition agreements were not transferred from Network Rail to Platform 4 under TUPE, Platform 4 has held discussions with the TUs about recognition, with further discussions intended shortly.
