Edwards v Swindon Borough Council UKEAT/0095/10/LA
Appeal against ruling that the claimant was not directly or indirectly discriminated against by reason of her race. On the claim of direct discrimination, the ET accepted the respondent's non-discriminatory explanation of why the claimant was not offered a job. As far as the indirect discrimination claim is concerned, the claimant failed to establish provision, criterion or practice in the respondent’s organisation which puts a person of the claimant’s race or ethnicity at a disadvantage. The EAT, although stating that the Employment Tribunal's reasons were not a model to be followed, ruled that the judgment was Meek compliant. The EAT also agreed with the ET on both claims and dismissed the appeal.

Kraft Foods UK Ltd v Hastie UKEAT/0024/10/ZT
Appeal by respondent against a ruling by the ET that a cap preventing employees, who had been made redundant, from recovering more than they would have earned if they had remained in employment until retirement age, was unjustifiable and accordingly that it constituted unlawful discrimination contrary to the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006 . Appeal allowed: since the purpose of the scheme was to compensate employees for the loss of the expectation of remaining in employment, to impose a cap preventing the “windfall” of an employee recovering more than he could have recovered had he stayed in employment until retirement necessarily constituted a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim.
