Weekly Tribunal Roundup: Week ending 15 March 2026
15 March 2026
A quieter week on volume, but with useful examples on whistleblowing disclosures and case-management discipline before final hearings.
Whistleblowing
Green v Cityline Services
Case number: 3305221/2024
Why it matters: Shows how tribunals separate protected disclosure issues from ordinary workplace disputes.
The tribunal treated only part of the pleaded disclosures as qualifying under statute.
Outcome: Claim narrowed; listed for further liability hearing.
Practical significance: Precise wording and context of disclosures remains crucial.
Procedure / Time Limits / Appeals
Reed v Tern Group Ltd
Case number: 2302810/2025
Why it matters: Practical case-management ruling on late evidence and fairness to both sides.
Late witness material was partly admitted with directions to manage prejudice.
Outcome: Hearing timetable preserved with limited additional directions.
Practical significance: Tribunals often prefer proportionate case management over all-or-nothing exclusion.
What this week suggests
Tribunals are willing to make practical procedural adjustments where they improve fairness without derailing hearing timetables.
What readers should watch
Expect continued scrutiny of late evidence and tighter pleading discipline as caseload pressure continues.
