Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr Terry Cripps brought claims against Powys County Council for unlawful deduction of wages and breach of contract. The tribunal dismissed the unlawful deduction claim so far as it related to alleged non-payment of wages for 4 and 5 September 2017, and dismissed the breach of contract claim relating to alleged non-payment of notice pay.
The tribunal upheld the unlawful deduction of wages claim insofar as it related to the failure to pay SEN allowance. It ordered the respondent to pay unpaid wages in the net sum of £1,815.30, payable by 19 February 2021. The written record notes that reasons had been given orally at the hearing and that no written reasons would follow unless requested.

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.
