Reasons

1.	By virtue of a decision promulgated on 31 October 2011 the claimant was awarded the sum of £14,677 in respect of compensation for unlawful indirect discrimination.

2.	By letter of 11 November 2011 the respondent’s representative requested a review of the decision on the grounds that new evidence had become available since the conclusion of the hearing and on the grounds that the interests of justice required such a review. 

3.	The Chairman conducted a preliminary consideration of the application for review under Rule 35 of the Industrial Tribunals (Rules of Procedure) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2005 and directed that a review hearing be arranged.  

4.	The parties reached agreement in advance of the hearing that the claimant’s compensation be reduced by £3,000.

5.	On 15 March 2012, at a Case Management Discussion arranged by the Chairman under Rule 10, the parties’ representatives drew up the proposed variation of the decision and agreed that the decision should be varied to reflect the agreement reached between them.  

6.	In accordance with the parties’ agreement, the tribunal therefore varies paragraphs 67 and 68 of the decision of 31 October 2011 so that they now read as follows:

“67.	The claimant claimed future loss for the period from 7 September 2011 to 31 March 2012 (the end of the contract).  Since the date of the decision the claimant has secured a post with North West Community Network as a PESP Officer commencing on 24 October 2011.  Her claim for future loss is for the period 7 September to 24 October 2011.

68.	The figure agreed for future loss is £2,389.36.  

Actual loss and future loss is £11,840.36.  

	50% x £11,840.36	=	£5,920.18
	
	Injury to feelings		£5,000.00

	Interest				£  757.00
						________

	TOTAL				£11,677.00”

7.	The decision paragraph on page 1 of the decision and the summary paragraph 69 are amended accordingly.
