Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal held that the claimants’ complaint under section 180 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, based on an alleged failure by the fourth respondent to comply with section 188, was well founded. The judgment states that the claimants listed on the attached schedule had been dismissed for redundancy on 2 November 2021.

By way of protective award, the Tribunal ordered the fourth respondent to pay the claimants remuneration for the protected period of 90 days beginning on 2 November 2021. The written judgment does not state a numerical monetary total for the award, but it records that the Recoupment Regulations apply.

The annex explains the operation of the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Benefits) Regulations 1996, including the respondent’s duty to provide employee details to the Secretary of State and the effect of any recoupment notice on payment of the protected award.

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.
