Transport for London cleaning review

Motion Text

That this House welcomes the decision by the London Mayor to conduct work to assess TfL’s ability to bring cleaning in-house; further welcomes the fact that RMT and Transport for London are now holding discussions to see whether and how this can be facilitated, preventing the need for TfL’s cleaning to be re-tendered in 2024; believes that cleaning work on London’s world-famous underground should not be done at the expense of those heroic keyworkers, who worked through the pandemic while being employed on basic terms and conditions inferior to those of other London Underground staff; and wishes the Mayor, the RMT and TfL every success in their endeavours to bring cleaners in-house.
