Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr P Williams brought claims against the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency and the Department for Transport. The response accepted that the DVSA was the proper respondent and sought dismissal of the claim against the Department for Transport. On 28 July 2020, Employment Judge Broughton asked the claimant for comments on that application by 4 August 2020, but none were received by that date or by 10 August 2020.
By judgment dated 10 August 2020, Employment Judge Clark dismissed the claim against the Second Respondent, the Department for Transport. The reasons state that the claim appeared to have been properly brought against DVSA and that the Department for Transport appeared to have been wrongly included. No substantive determination of the underlying claim is recorded in this judgment, and no remedy is awarded.

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.
