The RMT is considering an improved pay offer from Transport for London for its 10,000 members on London Underground.

TfL is attempting to end the dispute which led to disruptive strikes earlier this month by proposing a three-year settlement which would mean an increase of 3.4 per cent in the first year and then increases based on the Retail Price Index in each of the following two years.

TfL had previously dismissed the RMT’s claim for a reduction in the working week from 35 to 32 hours, on the grounds that it would cost more than £200 million a year, but it has not commented on this latest development.

However, RMT general secretary Eddie Dempsey said: ‘This offer will now be discussed by the national executive committee and in consultation with the membership.

‘As a result, the union remains in dispute with London Underground subject to the will of the membership under our democratic structures.’
