EAT RACE DISCRIMINATION – Other losses
After an oral judgment awarding certain sums and giving the parties the opportunity for calculating others, such as loss of earnings etc, and awarding an uplift of 45%, both counsel met on the following day to agree the figures, and just prior to returning to the Tribunal the Appellant made an express bank transfer of the sum (apart from the uplift) which had thus been agreed, and relied on Arrow v Onley [2009] UKEAT 0527 – 08 – 0406 to seek to avoid the uplift.
Held: (i) the oral judgment was an award (ii) in any event Arrow did not apply to a payment in such circumstances (iii) payment in such circumstances was required to be accepted, not unilaterally made.
