Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing was conducted remotely via CVP with the parties' agreement, and the tribunal dealt with the case on the documents before it. The respondent was Valorum Care Group Plc and the claimant was Mrs M Farrelly. The judgment records that the case concerned a wage deduction issue under Part II of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages. However, the deducted amount had already been repaid by the date of the hearing, so the tribunal made no order for repayment of that sum. It did, however, award £78.88 for financial loss sustained by the claimant and attributable to the unauthorised deduction.

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.
