LONDON METROPOLITAN UNIVERSITY

That this House expresses its deep regret at the refusal of London Metropolitan University to consult the University College Union (UCU), which is recognised by staff as their representative union; and urges the university's governors to insist that the Vice-Chancellor acknowledge that UCU is the recognised union representing academic staff at London Met and that he enter into meaningful discussions with UCU officers as a matter of urgency on the threatened redundancies and other outstanding issues.
