Potential further changes to the Employment Tribunal Rules

In anticipation of the transfer of rule-making responsibility for the Employment Tribunals, the TPC launched a consultation on 3 April 2024 dealing with the re-making of the rules needed to give effect to the transfer, and a small number of additional urgent rule changes. That consultation closed on 26 June 2024.

A response to the consultation was published by the TPC on 22 November 2024 and the rules were re-made by the TPC and the Lord Chancellor in a joint statutory instrument laid before Parliament on 6 December 2024. The Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 came into force on 6 January 2025 and can be found on the Legislation website.

This consultation deals with a number of potential further changes to the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024.
