Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the preliminary hearing in Glasgow on 13 June 2023, the claimant withdrew the complaint of indirect racial discrimination brought under section 19 of the Equality Act 2010. The tribunal recorded that withdrawal and dismissed that part of the combined claim under Rule 52 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure, on the respondents' application and without opposition from the claimant.
The judgment states that this withdrawal and dismissal did not affect the remaining heads of complaint in the combined proceedings. Those remaining claims were constructive unfair dismissal, direct race discrimination, harassment related to race, victimisation, and whistleblowing detriment.

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.
