Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that Mrs J Bainton and Mr P Bainton were employees of LRV Ltd (In Liquidation) at the relevant time. The only substantive issue determined in the written judgment was redundancy payment. Applying section 163 Employment Rights Act 1996, the tribunal found that each claimant was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment of £5,766, calculated as £192.50 x 1.5 x 20.
The tribunal also ordered the respondent to pay each claimant a further £5,766 to compensate for financial loss attributable to the failure to pay the redundancy payment. The written judgment notes that the amount stated orally at the hearing, £7,111.40, was an error and was corrected under rule 69 of the Employment Tribunal Rules 2013 because the calculation was for a statutory redundancy payment only. On the written figures, the total award for the two claimants is £23,064.

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.
