Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment was made under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. The tribunal found that Ashwood Archive Limited had made an unauthorised deduction from Ms Anthony's wages and ordered it to pay the gross sum of £3,890.66, made up of £1,557.33 for the balance of March 2024 salary and £2,333.33 for April 2024 salary.
The tribunal also found that Ms Anthony was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice. It awarded £2,692.30, calculated from a monthly gross salary of £2,333.33, annualised to £27,999.97, divided by 52 weeks to produce £538.46 per week, multiplied by five weeks' statutory notice pay.
The tribunal found that Ms Anthony was dismissed by Ashwood Archive Limited by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £4,035.45. The complaint in respect of holiday pay was dismissed upon withdrawal by the claimant.
The total amount awarded against Ashwood Archive Limited was £10,618.41. The claim against The Insolvency Service (Secretary of State) as second respondent was dismissed, and the hearing listed for 1 May 2025 was cancelled. The notice accompanying the judgment recorded that interest would be payable only if the award remained unpaid more than 14 days after 11 November 2024, with interest accruing from 12 November 2024 at 8% per annum.

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.
