Darnton v Bournemouth University UKEAT/0391/09/RN
Appeal by applicant, who had made a request under the Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations 2004, that a penalty be awarded against the employer for breaching these regulations. The President, having examined the reasons put forward by the employer, concluded they were not reasonable excuses. He set a penalty of £10,000 which, whilst at the lower end of the available scale, was not negligible due to the seriousness of the breach.
