Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many people have paid Employment Tribunal Fees during the operation of that policy.

We do not collect information on the number of individual claimants who paid fees in the Employment Tribunals.

The number of fee payments received in the Employment Tribunals between 29 July 2013 (when fees were introduced) and 26 July 2017 is published at: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/tribunals-and-gender-recognition-certificate-statistics-quarterly-july-to-september-2017 . Fee payments do not directly correlate to the number of individual claimants because there could be multiple claimants named in single claim.
