Maidstone Borough Council v Tebbutt: EAT 13 Sep 2001

The applicant had been taken on by the local authority. His letter of appointment, and of dismissal, and staff handbook contained inconsistent provisions about the period of notice applicable during his probationary period. The letter of offer was clear as to the period in the first six months, and was to be applied. The council’s appeal succeeded.
