These Regulations make a number of technical amendments to the Fair Employment Tribunal (Rules of Procedure) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2005 (“the principal Regulations”). These are designed primarily to correct drafting errors in the principal Regulations. They also clarify existing powers of the Fair Employment Tribunal.
Paragraphs (1)(a), (b) and (p), (2) and (3) of regulation 3 amend the Schedules to the principal Regulations to make it clear that detailed grounds should be provided to assist the Office of Industrial Tribunals and the Fair Employment Tribunal in managing cases more effectively. Sub-paragraphs (g)-(l) of regulation 3(1) make amendments ensuring that a decision to strike out at a pre-hearing review is a final determination of proceedings. Regulation 3(1)(m) clarifies the position where part of a claim is withdrawn. Regulation 3(1)(o) clarifies the right to question witnesses.
Given that the changes introduced by these Regulations are not substantive, full Regulatory and Equality Impact Assessments have not been carried out in relation to them. No significant equality impact arises from implementation of the Regulations.
