In September 2006 the employee referred to by the Deputy contacted the Department requesting enforcement of the Employment Appeals Tribunal award.

In order to enforce the determination of the Employment Appeals Tribunal, the determination must be successfully served on the company. Despite a number of attempts to date in this regard, including the use of an alternative address for the company as provided by the employee concerned, a successful service of the determination has not been made. The Department is currently examining available options with a view to progressing enforcement in this case.
