Case Summary

The Employment Tribunal did not err in law by not identifying a complaint of discrimination because of something arising in consequence of disability in the claimant's claim.

Why this outcome?

Claim not well-founded

The tribunal correctly determined that the claimant had not formulated a valid complaint of discrimination arising in consequence of disability within the meaning of the relevant statutory provision, and therefore the tribunal did not err in law by not identifying such a complaint.
