Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal, sitting before Employment Judge Knowles in Leeds by video on 6 June 2022, held that Miss K Thornton's claim for unauthorised deductions from wages was well founded. It ordered Riviera Multimedia Ltd to pay £12,936.84 gross and directed that the Respondent was responsible for any deductions at source in relation to employees' national insurance contributions and income tax, and for accounting to HMRC for those sums as required by law.
The Tribunal also dealt with a separate claim relating to pension loss, which it found was not well founded and dismissed. The judgment does not set out detailed reasons in the written record because reasons were given orally at the hearing and written reasons were not requested within the stated time limit.

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.
