Miss M Cameron v
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment was issued under rule 21 after the respondent stated that it did not contest the claim for a protective award. The tribunal found the claimant's complaint that the respondent failed to comply with the requirements of section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 was well-founded.
The tribunal found that the respondent proposed to make 91 redundancies at its Olivers Yard site and did not fully inform and consult with the claimant in accordance with section 188. It found there was no proper warning or consultation and no employee representatives were elected or appointed for consultation as required under section 188A.
The tribunal made a protective award under section 189 for the maximum protected period of 90 days, beginning on 15 April 2020. The judgment also recorded that the claimant had a notice pay claim, but that claim was to be dealt with at a separate hearing.

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.
