This dispute concerns a claim by Mr Adrian Hegarty for the payment of a marriage gratuity by the Bank of Ireland on his resignation from his employment with the company. The claimant says that marriage gratuities are paid to women who resign in similar circumstances to him and he claims that he is entitled to the payment of a marriage gratuity as he performed like work with Miss Madeleine Carroll in terms of Section 3 of the Anti-Discrimination (Pay) Act 1974.
