Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment. The Tribunal recorded that the respondent had failed to comply with the requirements of section 188 of the Trade Union & Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 and therefore made a declaration that there was a breach of that section.
The Tribunal accordingly made a protective award in respect of all claimants named on the attached schedule. The protected period was fixed at 90 days commencing on 23 October 2019.
The judgment states that the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Benefits) Regulations 1996 may apply to the award. No monetary amount for the award is stated in the judgment.

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.
