  • The full text of this judgment is available free of charge on the BAILII website.
    An example of a case in which-
    1. the Court of Appeal disagreed with the construction of a document adopted by both an employment tribunal and by the EAT, essentially because the commission arrangements in point amounted to such a one-sided bargain that unless there were very clear words to the contrary (which there were not) those arrangements were not ones which the parties should be taken to have entered into;
    2. the £25,000 limit on amounts which employment tribunals can award for breach of contract was in point.
