Minutes:

The Committee considered an appeal against dismissal from an employee of the Corporate Director for People.

 

The Committee was advised that the appellant was unable to attend the meeting and as a result the Committee was of the view that it would be unfair to all parties to hear oral submissions from Management only.  The Committee therefore determined that it would reconvene the meeting in order to give the appellant a further opportunity to attend the meeting.  It was agreed that if the appellant failed to appear again, then the meeting would go ahead in their absence.  The appellant was written to and advised of this decision.

 

At 10.30am it was

 

RESOLVED – That the meeting be adjourned.

 

On 14 August 2019, the Employment Appeal Committee reconvened.  The Committee were again advised that the appellant had failed to attend the meeting.

 

The Committee heard evidence from Management and asked questions relating to the dismissal.

 

Having listened to all that was said and having read all the documentation, that was submitted, the Committee decided that the appeal against dismissal be not upheld.

 

RESOLVED – That the appeal against dismissal be not upheld.
