Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Miss Gemma Sprason, succeeded in her unfair dismissal complaint on the basis that she was dismissed by reason of redundancy. The judgment records that she did not seek compensation beyond the redundancy payment, so the tribunal did not record any separate compensatory award for unfair dismissal.
The tribunal also found that the claimant was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment. It noted that she earned £370 gross per week, £333 net per week, and had three years' service and was over the age of 21. On that basis, the redundancy payment was assessed at £1,110, described in the judgment as 3 x £370.
The breach of contract claim succeeded. The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay three weeks' notice pay in the net sum of £999. The unlawful deduction from wages claim did not proceed to a determination on the merits because it was dismissed on withdrawal by the claimant.

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.
