BAE Systems (Operations) Ltd v Paterson: EAT 27 Jun 2012

EAT Transfer of Undertakings : Service Provision Change
Practice and Procedure – Amendment
An Employment Judge raised the question whether there might have been a service provision change in April 2011 after all the evidence had been heard by reference to an alleged change in June 2011, submissions had been made, and he had already been considering the case for some days. The representative for the Respondent indicated that fresh and further evidence would be needed to deal with the point. No opportunity was given for this to happen. Accordingly, there had been a procedural irregularity which justified quashing the decision and remission for re-hearing.
