    Further and Better Particulars

    Hello LB Forum! I'm hoping someone can help me.

    I have started a claim in the employment tribunal, the Respondent has submitted their ET3 but alongside this they have also asked me for 'Further and Better particular of claims'. In this letter there are various numbered questions.

    I understand the questions and ok to respond but I don't know in which format my response needs to be. Do I need to amend the original particulars of claim? Or do i just respond to the questions in a separate document? If so, how does this document need to be headed and formatted? Can I add anything else to the document apart from answers to their questions?

    You cannot amend your original ET1 or original Particulars of Claim. You need to answer the questions in a separate document, ideally in the order that you have been asked. You need to answer the questions as fully as you can, also as in your particulars of claim if you have evidence to support your response/s then you need to set this out.

    If you have anything further that is relevant to your claim as a consequence of what you have been asked by the Respondent, then you can add this in at the end of the document.

    I have uploaded a template that may assist.

    When sending this to the Respondent you should also sent to the ET so they have it on record.
    Thank you very much ULA, this is very helpful!!

    These letters will feature in the tribunal bundle. The claimant and respondent should agree the contents of the bundle. If the respondent is employing a solicitor, the solicitor will be better positioned to prepare the bundle
    Sorry I'm specifically talking about the further and better particulars. When I respond, should this also be sent to the tribunal?

    Unlike civil claims which are governed by cpr, there is no set procedure for applying for further information (Part 18 request)
    The respondent is following established procedure in an employment tribunal by writing to you direct and asking for answers to their questions.
    You should answer their questions very carefully, not providing unnecessary info that you may come to regret.
    If you fail to answer their questions within a reasonable time (at least 7 days), the respondent is within their right to apply to the tribunal for an order from the tribunal that this info is provided
    Do not alter your particulars of claim. Respond by a separate document (letter)
    Thank you Pezza. You say to respond in a separate letter. Does this need to also be sent to the court?
