Nazir & Anor v Asim & Anor UKEAT/0332/09/RN
Appeal against findings of sexual and racial harassment and discrimination. The claims were brought against 2 members of a board, which was an unincorporated organisation: the Tribunal ruled that it had jurisdiction to hear the claims against the 2 board members in their capacity as representatives of the UA and not as individual perpetrators. 4 of the claims succeeded. The jurisdiction appeal was dismissed. The EATconfirmed that the board members were liable as 'employer' and not through vicarious or secondary liability. Claims of racial and sexual harassment and discrimination were remitted to a fresh Tribunal.

British Airways PLC v Mak & Ors [2010] EWCA Civ 596
Renewed application for permission to appeal. Application granted partly because "there is or may be something wrong with the assumption by a domestic employment tribunal of jurisdiction over a claim for racial and age discrimination by claimants such as those in this case whose connection with the jurisdiction can be said to be tenuous"
