The Ministry of Justice has set out its new digital strategy on its website, which indicates that an online facility to pay employment tribunal fees will be introduced by July 2013. This suggests that the new fee regime will come into effect at that time and is consistent with the Government’s previous announcement in its response to the Charging Fees in Employment Tribunals and the Employment Appeal Tribunal consultation, that the new regime was to be introduced in the summer of 2013.
This provides summary information and comment on the subject areas covered. Where employment tribunal and appellate court cases are reported, the information does not set out all of the facts, the legal arguments presented and the judgments made in every aspect of the case. Employment law is subject to constant change either by statute or by interpretation by the courts.

Specialist legal advice must be taken on any legal issues that may arise before embarking upon any formal course of action.
