EAT RELIGION OR BELIEF DISCRIMINATION
There is no breach of ECHR Art 6 when a corporate employer accused of discrimination fails to produce the decision maker at trial to face cross-examination. Art 6.3(d) applies to criminal proceedings. It was reasonably arguable from the construction of the dismissal letter that the Claimant’s belief in spirituality, correctly protected by the 2003 Regulations, contributed to the decision to dismiss him.
