Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis record contains the tribunal's oral decision on a preliminary issue rather than a final merits outcome. Employment Judge K Hunt sat at Cardiff Magistrates Court on 25 April 2023 in the claim brought by Miss K Walters against Visclose Closures Ltd.
The tribunal found that Miss Walters was disabled at the relevant time by reason of a mental impairment. The written record states that her claim for disability discrimination continues, indicating that this decision resolved the disability-status issue but did not finally determine the substantive discrimination allegations.
No remedy was awarded in this record, and no further findings on liability are set out in the extracted text. The decision notes that oral reasons were given at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in accordance with the tribunal's standard notice.

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.
