Rubery (appellant) v Ministry of Defence (respondent)

Wednesday 26 November 2025

By Appellant’s Notice filed on 5 November 2024, the Claimant (C) appeals against the order made by the Employment Appeals Tribunal sealed on 14 October 2024 allowing the MOD’s appeal and dismissing the C’s cross appeal –quashing the decision of the Employment Tribunal and substituting a decision striking out the C’s claim.

The issue was whether the ET had erred in reading down additional words into section 121 Equality Act 2010 to enable C to bring a complaint of sex discrimination to the ET under the Human Rights Act about the statutory service complaints process available to member of the armed forces.
