The Claimant applied for specific disclosure in relation to documents arising from an investigation into a ‘Post Termination Whistleblowing Document’ submitted by her after the termination of her employment. The Respondents maintained that no relevant documents arose from investigation. The Employment Judge made an order for disclosure of such documents in this category as were relevant.
The Respondents appealed on the grounds that the Employment Judge had failed to determine whether the documents were relevant but had nevertheless made an order for specific disclosure.
Held: appeal allowed. Guidance as to the determination of applications for specific disclosure where relevance is disputed.
