EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 4110628/2019 and Others (Multiple 9179) (As per attached Schedule) Mr B Wallace and Others
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNo response had been presented to the claims. The respondent was in administration, and the joint administrator confirmed by letter dated 19 September 2019 that he did not object to the claims continuing and did not intend to defend them, so the Employment Judge issued a rule 21 judgment on the available material.
The tribunal held that the complaint that the respondent failed to comply with section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 was well founded. It found that on or around 19 July 2019 the claimants were told their employment was ending by reason of redundancy, that no consultation or notice was given before termination, and that the claimants were dismissed on 19 July 2019. The judgment also records that the respondent dismissed more than 20 employees by reason of redundancy within a 90-day period and that all the employees were based at the same establishment.
The tribunal decided that a protective award should be made in respect of the former employees working at the respondent's establishment at Unit 5, West Shore Road, Edinburgh, EH5 1QF. It fixed the protected period at 90 days beginning on 19 July 2019. The extracted text does not state any monetary calculation or total sum for the award.

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.
