Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt with the claim under Rule 21 because the time for presenting a response had expired and no valid response had been lodged by Thirtieth Limited. On that basis, Employment Judge Holmes entered judgment in favour of Miss Yewen Dai.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages and ordered payment of the gross sum of £1,666.67. The judgment stated that the sum was to be paid gross, with the claimant to account to HMRC for any deductions for tax and national insurance. The separate hearing listed for 11 August 2023 was cancelled.

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.
