Claim, on behalf of fifty five workers, for extra statutory redundancy terms.
Recommendation:
The Court considers that in all the circumstances of this case
there should be some compensation for these workers over and above
the statutory redundancy terms. The Court therefore recommends
that the liquidator use what influence he has to ensure that in
addition to their statutory entitlements the workers should be
paid a sum equivalent to twice the statutory amount.
