London Probation Board v Kirkpatrick: EAT 7 Jan 2005

EAT Unfair Dismissal
When an employee is dismissed and then reinstated on an internal appeal it is open to the parties to agree reinstatement as a matter of contract and such an arrangement albeit made after the gap in the continuity of employment, fills in the gap for the purposes of section 212 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. Ingram v Foxon [1984] ICR 685 EAT followed; Murphy v A Birrell and Sons [1978] IRLR 458 EAT not followed.
