REASONS

This was a reconsideration on the Tribunal’s own initiative under Rule 73 of the Employment Tribunal’s Rules of Procedure 2013. The respondent had also appealed the Tribunal’s judgment, which was sent to the parties on 29 November 2017. The parties agreed that they had reached a conciliated COT3 agreement on 28 November 2017, immediately before the Rule 21 Judgment was issued. Had the Judge known that, the Rule 21 Judgment would not have been made; it should therefore be revoked.
