The judgment records that Miss Margaret McNeill had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice, and that James Stewart Kyle was ordered to pay damages of £1,920, calculated as 12 weeks at £160 per week.
The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £2,720.

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.
