Update: https://www.unison.org.uk/new-date-s...-tribunal-fees

New date set for High Court hearing into tribunal fees

A new judicial review launched by UNISON over the introduction of Tribunal fees is set to be heard by the High Court on 21 and 22 October 2014, the union announced today.
It follows the decision of the Court of Appeal last month to stay the appeal of the earlier High Court decision over tribunal fees, in light of new evidence showing a huge drop in tribunal claims.
The Lord Chancellor agreed with UNISON that a new hearing should take place as soon as possible in light of the new evidence.

Re: Judicial review of ET & EAT fees

This is very true:

"Over the past year we have seen tens of thousands of workers denied access to justice simply because they can no longer afford to bring an employment tribunal claim. If the Government doesn't abolish these unfair fees it is effectively rolling out the welcome mat to unscrupulous employers, and we must do everything possible not to let that happen."

I hope they finally see the light and undo at least a tiny bit of all the nasty work the Capitalist Moron (CaMoron) we have in charge, has been doing!

Also what fresh evidence Grayling was warned time & time again that this reduction in ET claims would happen & that was his intention after all
