Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant, a former shopkeeper, was unlawfully dismissed from employment. The local joint committee ordered his reinstatement, but the respondent failed to comply. When the applicant approached the tribunal for quantification of damages, the designated agent ruled that the matter was improperly before the tribunal as it was pending before the Negotiating Committee. The applicant delayed six days in filing an appeal against this decision.
