Response

Judgments from the Employment Tribunal from 2005 and more recently the Employment and Discrimination Tribunal are published on the Jersey Legal Information Board website, which can be accessed via the link below. Article 23 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 has therefore been applied.
