Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that Mr D. McCoy was dismissed by R&T Transport Limited by reason of redundancy on 31 December 2021. On that basis, it held that he was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment under section 163 Employment Rights Act 1996. The tribunal recorded that the weekly pay at dismissal was £346.15, that the claimant was 68 years old, and that he had 16 years' service from 1 May 2005 to 31 December 2021.
The tribunal ordered payment of £8,307.60 as the statutory redundancy payment. It also noted that this sum had been accepted as owing by the respondent in a letter dated 7 April 2022.
In a separate award, the tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £1,384.60, described as four weeks' pay, under section 38 Employment Act 2002 for failure to provide particulars of employment required by section 1 Employment Rights Act 1996. The combined monetary awards therefore totalled £9,692.20.

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.
