Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe first claimant, Miss T Bowles, brought claims of breach of contract relating to notice pay and accrued but untaken annual leave. The tribunal struck those claims out for want of jurisdiction because they were presented out of time and the claimant had not shown that it was not reasonably practicable to present them within time. The judgment records that they were not dismissed, because the claimant had indicated she may pursue them in the County Court, to the extent there is concurrent jurisdiction.
Miss T Bowles's statutory redundancy payment claim succeeded. The respondent was ordered to pay her £2,079, which the tribunal calculated as 6 x 1.5 x £231.
Mr Darren Clay's statutory redundancy payment claim also succeeded. The respondent was ordered to pay him £2,448, which the tribunal calculated as 3 x 1.5 x £544. The judgment does not set out any other award components beyond those statutory redundancy payments.

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.
