Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Employment Judge issued judgment on the available material under rule 22 because no response was presented within the applicable time limit. The respondent was in administration, but the administrator consented to the continuation of the proceedings by letter dated 01 September 2025.
The claimant was entitled to bring the claim because it concerned a failure relating to the election of employee representatives and he was an employee dismissed as redundant. The Tribunal found the complaint well founded that the respondent failed to comply with sections 188 and 188A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992.
The Tribunal found that the respondent dismissed as redundant more than 20 employees at one establishment within 90 days or less. It also found that the respondent failed to ensure employee representatives were elected in accordance with s.188A and then failed to consult with them in accordance with s.188.
The Tribunal made a protective award in respect of employees dismissed as redundant at the respondent's establishment at 78 Cannon Street, London, EC4N 6HL. The respondent was ordered to pay remuneration for a protected period beginning on 14 July 2025 and lasting 90 days; the judgment did not state a monetary total.

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.
