South Lanarkshire Council v Russell & Ors UKEATS/0067/09/BI
Appeal against an order requiring the respondent employer to provide additional information in respect of an equal pay claim. The order was held to be incompetent because, despite the hearing taking place before a full Tribunal, the Employment Judge made the order alone, contrary to rule 18(2). In the alternative, if the Employment Judge wanted to make a standalone order under rule 10, the lay members should not have heard the argument. Appeal allowed and case remitted to the Tribunal.
