Motion text

Congress notes:
1. Rule 2.4: UCU's aim “To promote equality for all including through… the Union's own employment practices”
2. Rule 29.2: Employees shall be engaged under conditions of employment agreed by the National Executive Committee
3. Organisational and staffing responsibilities in the General Secretary's job description agreed by the NEC
4. Unite's dispute over racism and organisational failings including breach of their recognition agreement
5. Unite's statutory ballot result
6. Unite's notice of strike action on 30 May
7. the announcement that if strike action goes ahead, all sector conference business would be remitted to HEC and FEC accordingly.
Congress believes:
a. it's inappropriate for HEC and FEC to make decisions on all sector conference business
Congress instructs NEC to:
i. ensure the General Secretary resolves the dispute with Unite and agrees an independent investigation into UCU's organisational climate
ii. recall the sector conferences once the dispute is resolved so that members, not the executive, can make policy decisions.
