JUDGMENT

[1]It was not reasonably practicable for the claimant’s Employment Rights Act 1996 complaints (unfair dismissal and deductions from wages), and complaints pursuant to the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and Sex Discrimination Act 1975 to have been brought by 17 July 2009 (the primary limitation date).[2]I do not consider that a reasonable or just and equitable further period in which to present the complaints extends up to and including 19 September 2017 (when the claims were presented), weighing up all the factors but including the effect on the evidence of the delay such that I do not consider that it is possible to have a fair hearing of the issues.[3]The complaints are dismissed.
