EAT Wasted costs – Tribunal did not (1) apply or give reasons in respect of the appropriate tests for wasted costs and (2) afford the Appellant an opportunity to respond to substantial written submissions and evidence put in by the Respondents. Value of guidance in Godfrey Morgan Solicitors v Cobalt Systems [2012] ICR 305 emphasised.
Costs and wasted costs – Tribunal did not apply the correct test concerning ability to pay. Arrowsmith v Nottingham Trent University [2012] ICR 159 and Vaughan v London Borough of Lewisham UKEAT/0533/12 applied.
