Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that both claimants’ claims succeeded. The judgment states that the claims for unfair dismissal under Part X of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and for breach of contract being notice pay, were successful. The decision was issued without a hearing under rule 60.
Mr PN Lanigan was awarded a basic award of £7,875 and a compensatory award of £86,444, with the judgment stating that the compensatory award incorporated the notice period. His total award was £94,319. Mr AS Lenehan was awarded a basic award of £6,300 and a compensatory award of £86,444, also stated to include the notice period. His total award was £92,744.
The judgment does not split the notice-pay element into a separate sum; it is folded into the compensatory award for each claimant. An attached notice stated that interest under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990 would apply if the sums remained unpaid after 14 days, with 11 June 2020 as the relevant decision day, 12 June 2020 as the calculation day, and 8% as the stipulated rate of interest.

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.
