Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that the claimant's contract of employment with Eastbourne Construction Ltd was not unenforceable due to illegality. It then found that the claimant's complaint of unlawful deduction from wages was well founded.
The tribunal awarded the claimant £50 payable within 14 days. That figure represented an original deduction of £500, less credit for £450 subsequently paid direct by the respondent to the claimant.

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.
