The Case
Employment Dismissal. In the instant case, where the employee had brought proceedings against the employer for unfair dismissal, the tribunal had erred in finding that the employee had been given insufficient time to consider his response before a meeting in accordance with Sch2(2)(b) to the Employment Act 2002, in circumstances where the employee and his union representative had not, at the time of the meeting complained of the short timescale.
