Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a public preliminary hearing by video link at Reading on 3 March 2021, heard by Employment Judge Vowles sitting alone. The tribunal heard evidence on oath and read documents from the parties before deciding the issue before it.
The only substantive finding recorded in the judgment was that Ms M Buwa was not a disabled person within the meaning of section 6 of the Equality Act 2010 at the material time. On that basis, the complaint of disability discrimination failed and was dismissed. The judgment states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would only be provided if requested within 14 days.

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.
