After consideration of a report from the SDGS and Organising Department, the PEC have decided that there is no alternative other than to move the Royal Mail ballot timetable back one week, in order to ensure that the Union is able to demonstrate beyond doubt that it has fully complied with the requirements of legislation.

Ballot papers will therefore now be issued on 16 September, with the closing date for the ballot being 30 September.

We apologise for any difficulty that the revised date may cause to Branches, but it is essential that all reasonable steps have been taken to ensure full compliance with legal requirements.
