Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a CVP hearing on 8 November 2023, Employment Judge Hutchings decided a preliminary issue in Claire Lea's complaint against Total Energies Gas & Power Ltd. The tribunal held that the complaint of disability discrimination had been presented within the applicable time limit.
The consequence of that ruling was that the disability discrimination complaint would proceed. This written record does not contain any merits determination on the underlying discrimination allegations and records no award of compensation or other remedy.
The judgment was given orally at the hearing, with written reasons not provided in the written record. No lay members are listed, and no further issues were determined in this decision.

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.
