EAT Race Discrimination
The Employment Tribunal Chairman divided the 17 allegations of race discrimination formulated by counsel into 4 periods. These periods were derived from that document. The finding that periods 1 and 2 could not be bolted to period 3 was a finding of fact: Robertson v Bexley Community Centre [2003] IRLR 434. No error of law. The Employment Tribunal Chairman did not err in applying what on analysis was the Hendricks v Commissioner for the Police Metropolis [2003] IRLR 96 test as to a continuing act. It was unnecessary to decide whether Robertson on this point was decided without reference to binding authority i.e. Hendricks but the Malingios test was not passed.
