Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningFollowing the refusal of Sandra Tattersall's application to amend her claim, the only remaining complaints concerned unpaid holiday pay. Heart of England Co-operative Society conceded liability and paid the sums due in full, although in two tranches. Tattersall continued to complain that the delay amounted to a breach of contract and that incorrect information had been provided to HMRC.
The Tribunal struck out the claim under Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 because it had no reasonable prospect of success. The only remedy available in respect of the unpaid holiday pay had already been satisfied; there was no extant claim to which damages could be awarded and no remaining financial loss for a breach-of-contract remedy. The Tribunal also stated that it had no jurisdiction concerning the allegedly incorrect reference to HMRC. No monetary award was made.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
