The Employment Appeals Tribunal is an independent body bound to act judicially on the basis of evidence and submissions from both parties to a case. As an independent body, I have no authority to intervene in any case heard by it. The Tribunal is answerable to the Higher Courts by way of Appeal or Judicial Review in its function, decisions and the manner in which it conducts itself. The case to which the Deputy refers, was heard by the Tribunal on 6 December, 2007 and the determination issued to all parties on 4 January, 2008.
