Congress notes that on 4 September 2008, Tube Lines, the London Underground maintenance company, was formally approached by the non-TUC affiliated Associated Train Crew Union (ATCU) to seek recognition with the company.
Congress further notes that ATCU is a breakaway union that represents a divisive attempt to undermine the efforts of the recognised rail unions to protect and advance the interests of rail workers.
Congress further notes that ATCU has publicly stated its aspiration to affiliate to the TUC and Congress requests that the General Council must refuse any request from ATCU for affiliation to the TUC.
