Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal held that the claimant's complaint under section 189 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 succeeded. The complaint was that the respondent failed to comply with the requirements of section 188 of the 1992 Act.

The Tribunal ordered the respondent to pay a protective award under section 189(3) of the 1992 Act. The award was remuneration at the rate of one week's pay, stated as £772.50, for a period of 90 days beginning on 3 May 2024. The judgment states that the Recoupment Regulations apply.

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.
