EAT Practice and Procedure – 1. The ET was wrong, in the absence of the Respondent, to raise with the Claimant a further claim she might have made and to adjudicate upon it, the Appellant having no notice of it and no opportunity to respond.
2. In any event the ET failed to spot that there was a statutory jurisdictional defence to that claim which it was appropriate to permit the Appellant to raise at the appeal for the first time.
