The appellant had applied for a secondment as a Registrar of Companies of Anguilla. The appointment was made with others by the Respondent, his current employers, as agent for the government of Anguilla. He alleged race discrimination and victimisation. The respondent replied that since the appointment was abroad, the tribunal did not have jurisdiction. It was clear that the case raised several issues of law, and it was not possible from the reasons provided to divine how these questions had been determined and applied by the tribunal. It was necessary for the matter to be remitted, but because of the length of time since the original hearing, it should be to a fresh tribunal.
