JUDGMENT

This has been a remote which has been consented to by the parties. The form of remote hearing was video link (CVP). A face to face hearing was not held because it was not practicable during the pandemic and all issues could be determined fairly in a remote hearing. Following the hearing of oral evidence from the claimant and legal submissions from the claimant and Mr Humphreys for the respondent, the decision of the tribunal is that:(1) The tribunal does not have jurisdiction to hear the claimant’s claims and they are struck out because they were compromised by a binding settlement agreement between the parties on 21 October 2019 (s.203 Employment Rights Act 1996).

(2) In addition, the tribunal does not have jurisdiction to hear the claims because they were not submitted in time (ss.48(3) and 111 Employment Rights Act 1996 and Article 7 of the Employment Tribunals Extension of Jurisdiction (England and Wales) Order 1994).
