Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal sat in chambers and decided the case on the documents in the file. The respondent did not present a response to the claims. On that basis, the tribunal found the claimants' complaints of failure to comply with the collective consultation obligations in the Trade Union and Labour Relations Act 1992 to be well-founded.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay each claimant a protective award under s.189(2) of the 1992 Act. The award was expressed as remuneration calculated by reference to each claimant's gross pay for the protected period of 90 days commencing on 22 January 2024.
The judgment is a corrected judgment dated 30 May 2025, with the correction entered on 5 June 2025 to add the underlined words and the attached schedule of claimants. No separate monetary total is given in the judgment text, because the award is to be calculated individually by reference to each claimant's gross pay.

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.
