Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and Employment Judge Phil Allen made a determination under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. On that basis, the tribunal determined the claim without a hearing on the respondent's response.
The tribunal found that Mrs D Walker was dismissed by reason of redundancy. It held that she was entitled to a redundancy payment of £8,212.50, calculated as 22.5 weeks at £365 per week. The judgment also included the standard notice that interest may become payable if the award is not paid within 14 days of the relevant decision day, but it did not specify any separate interest amount in the award itself.

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.
