DETERMINATION :

Background

Mr. Scullion, ‘the Complainant’, appealed a Decision of an Adjudication Officer that his claim of constructive dismissal by Boots Retail Ireland Limited, ‘the Respondent’, was not well founded.

Some preliminary points were raised in submissions by the parties.

The Court invited both parties to a hearing to consider these preliminary matters.

The Complainant failed to appear to present his appeal. Accordingly, there is no appeal for the Court to consider.

Determination

The Decision of the Adjudication Officer is affirmed.

Signed on behalf of the Labour Court
