Secretary of State for Work & Pensions v Wakefield UKEAT/0435/09/JOJ
Appeal by employer against a decision by the ET that, whilst the claimant had not been discriminated against by reason of disability, the employer had failed to make reasonable adjustments.

Appeal succeeded and remitted to the same Tribunal for re-consideration.
