EAT Tribunal found (i) no transfer of undertaking between employer A, owned by B, and employer C owned by C and in part by B’s wife and (ii) employer A was not a stable economic entity. The appeal was based on alleged misdirection – which we did not accept – and, for the most part, on perversity arguments. The circumstances were certainly suspicious; the Tribunal took that into account; it reached a factual conclusion that there had been no transfer which were, on the findings, permissible options. Appeal dismissed.
