Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a consent judgment under Rule 64. The tribunal recorded that the parties had agreed the terms of the judgment, and that the respondent had failed to adequately comply with section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992. On that basis, the claim for a protective award under section 189 succeeded.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay remuneration to the claimant for a protected period of 90 days beginning on 12 October 2020, being the date on which the first of the dismissals to which the complaint related took effect. The judgment does not set out a separate monetary figure for that award in the extracted text.
The claimant's unfair dismissal claim was dismissed on withdrawal. The claimant's notice pay claim was also dismissed on withdrawal. The tribunal made no order for costs or fees, stating that each party should bear their own costs and fees in relation to those claims.

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.
