The appellant had failed in an application for a redundancy payment, after his employer’s business closed after investigation for criminal activities. Upon learning of the investigation the appellant had resigned. The ET had said he might have succeeded in a claim for constructive dismissal, but rejected the redundancy claim.
Held: In his papers the appellant had conceded that he had not been made redundant. Once made, such a concession could not be withdrawn, and the appeal must fail.
