Representation:

Mr A Scott-Davies, the appellant in person.

Mr B Gardiner instructed by Porter Dodson, Solicitors, Central House, Church Street, Yeovil, Somerset BA20 1HH for Redgate Medical Services, the respondent employer.

Authority for the proposition that:-

there is no free-standing right for an employee to bring a claim that his employer failed to follow the statutory disciplinary/dismissal procedures required since 1st October 2004. Therefore a dismissed employee who is unable to claim unfair dismissal because he had not completed the period of continuous employment required bring such a claim (one year) cannot instead bring a claim that his employer failed to follow the statutory disciplinary/dismissal procedures.
