RDC - 11 TO 3 - MOYA GIVING EVIDENCE

[TrueBlueTerrier]

I think I heard her say at 11:21 at link that she will reduce district offices from 11 to 3 http://www.parliamentlive.tv/Main/Playe ... ingId=6960" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Does she mean RDC.

[POSTMAN]

She did say it,sounds like RDC's!

Two things are obvious....

Royal Mail senior management are pro-privatisation.
Royal mail need BT2010 to be seen to be working for the sale to go ahead.
BTW if she ever calls me a letter carrier again............

[POSTMAN]

There is no doubt she deffo wants to sell us,she says it should be done asap!
She also said there would be no extra job losses because of privatisation.

[fishtank]

She called World Class Mail a huge tool although she may have meant the guy who came up with the idea.
Watching Billy & Dave now.

Just read it, 11 down to 3 by the end of next year, as they have delayed the announcements until January, its not giving us much time to plan.

Funny thing was I agreed with him they should have been able to give evidence separately as the have different views and represent different staff levels and interests.

But and if your looking in Billy I am sorry, but you ramble quite a lot and it can be embarrassing, you had to ask one questioner to repeat his question because you had gone off at a tangent. You seem to think of a new point half way through the one your making and then jump to that. It makes you seem disjointed and unsure.

Yet I have heard you make a few speeches and when they are prepared they can be very good, as an orator you are, imho, very good. As a debater I think you need a bit more polish and training.

I personally think Unite and the CWU should bury the hatchet and start working together, Unite represents mainly first and second line managers, who are also facing the same problems if an office closes as front line staff,

Yes some front line managers are bullies and incompetent but other good front line managers who want to have a better working place for all are tarnished with the same brush.

They has been for too long a them and us culture, I know previous actions have not helped, but i think now is the time to start moving forward, If they had a joint compaign and the unite supported the CWU with an all out strike or other measures it would make the business take notice.

Told ya , they will cut down the RDCs into super centres, the only thing I was wrong on was the time scale, I thought 5 years.

[dodger162]

She actually said 'district offices'. There are currently 11 RM regions and she also mentioned 'by the end of next year' which is when all the admin changes should have taken place.

Highly unlikely that RDCs could be cut to only 3 and certainly not within 12 months so I'm sure she was talking about the Regions.

[NWpostie]

ok fair point, I do know of plans to cut down the number of RDCs to "super centres" guess I will wait out and see what comes up ............
