Claimant v MM Flowers Limited

This was an interim relief application, not a final hearing. The tribunal found it was not likely that the final tribunal would find the principal reason for dismissal was protected disclosures. Claimant failed to identify actual words amounting to protected disclosure, failed to identify legal wrongdoing, and evidence suggested complaints were about personal situation rather than public interest. Main claim will proceed to final hearing.

The tribunal found at this preliminary stage that the claimant had not shown it was likely she made protected disclosures. She did not identify the actual words, the legal wrongdoing, and complaints appeared personal rather than in the public interest. The substantive claim remains to be determined at a final hearing.

This claim was mentioned in the judgment as having been brought but was not the subject of this preliminary hearing which concerned only the interim relief application. It will be determined at a future final hearing.
