Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many employment tribunals in which the appellant had a terminal condition and was contesting a dismissal that occurred because of their diagnosis took place in each of the last five years.
Answered by Shailesh Vara
Data on the number of claims made by appellants with a terminal condition on the grounds of unfair dismissal is not collated centrally by HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS). This information could only be provided at a disproportionate cost by manually checking hard copy tribunal files or judgments.
