Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The claimant brought a complaint that McGill & Co Ltd (in Administration) had failed to comply with section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 in relation to collective redundancies. The respondent did not lodge a response, did not appear, and the case was heard on the claimant's evidence and limited productions. The tribunal found that the complaint was within its jurisdiction because the issue was whether late presentation could be excused under section 189(5).

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.
