Further to my previous piece regarding Tribunal Fees, the President of the Employment Tribunals has issued an Order staying all tribunal claims brought in reliance on the Supreme Court’s recent decision pending decisions of the Ministry of Justice and the Tribunal Service as to the implications of the decision.
The effect appears to be that all Applications for refunds of fees, claims that were rejected or dismissed for non-payment of fees, and new claims not brought earlier because of fees and where an extension of time is now sought, will now be stayed to await the Government’s response to the Supreme Court decision.
