Mr Wayne Allan & Others v AL Realisations Limited (in Administration), and 2 others — 2020

This was a consent judgment covering the claimants listed in the attached schedule, including Mr Wayne Allan. The judgment records that the claimants were employed by the first and second respondents, that the second respondent changed its name to the first respondent on 22 April 2020, and that administrators were appointed in March and April 2020.

The judgment states that between 31 March and 22 May 2020 the claimants were dismissed by reason of redundancy. The claimants brought a complaint under section 189 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 seeking a protective award for failure to consult in accordance with sections 188 and 188A. The parties accepted that the claimants were assigned to an establishment where 20 or more redundancies were proposed within a 90-day period, and that the respondents did not fully inform and consult with them as required.

The Tribunal made a protective award in favour of the claimants listed in the schedule for a protected period of 10 days, beginning on each claimant's termination date as set out in the schedule. The award was capped at the amount payable by the Redundancy Payments Service, subject to any deductions required by law. The judgment also records that each party was to bear its own costs and fees, and that the claims listed in the schedule were extinguished in their entirety by the consent judgment.
