- Motion text
Conference notes:
1. the initial success of the crowdfunding campaign to bring claims against the USS trustees and managers for: discrimination, negligence and general managerial failures.
2. the willingness of people and UCU branches to fund the campaign, to the value of over £200 000 so far.
Conference believes having an alternative, legal route to challenge USS trustees’ scheme management, alongside the UCU industrial dispute, provides the best chance of protecting USS members’ retirement security.
Conference resolves
a. to call on UCU to financially support this campaign going forward.
b. to use UCU resources to gain additional publicity and political support for this legal challenge.
