Union Trustees win

Union-backed Dan Cooke and Jenny Kimber have been elected as BBC Pension Trustees.

BECTU and the NUJ recommended members vote for Dan Cooke and Jenny Kimber in the ballot for two staff-elected Trustees.

Dan won the highest vote, putting him into the vacancy with a full 6-year term, while Jenny came second, and will fill the seat vacated by Ann Duffell with two years of her term to run.

Both Dan and Jenny have asked for their thanks to be passed on to the many union members who helped to ensure their election.
