    APPEARANCES

     

    For the Appellant MS J BROWN
    (of Counsel)
    Bindman & Partners
    Solicitors
    275 Gray's Inn Road
    London
    WC1X 8QP
       


     

    JUDGE PETER CLARK: This appeal raises a number of points, particularised in an amended Notice of Appeal, leave for which amendment is granted, relating to the calculation of compensation following a finding by the Industrial Tribunal of both unfair dismissal and disability discrimination. There are additional complaints that the tribunal has failed to give adequate reasons for parts of its decision on remedy; the treatment of a 'redundancy payment' where the reason for dismissal was found not to be redundancy, and the tribunal's refusal to award interest on the award for injury to feelings under the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. A further point arises as to the treatment of state benefits received by the appellant.

    We consider that all the grounds raised in the Notice of Appeal ought to be argued at a full hearing and we give leave for the matter to proceed accordingly.

    The appeal will be listed on a date to be fixed commencing not before 11.30 a.m. Category B. Skeleton arguments to be exchanged between the parties and copies lodged with the Employment Appeal Tribunal not less than 14 days before the date fixed for the hearing.
