This award is made subject to the appellant having been in insurable employment under the Social Welfare Acts during the relevant period.

The Tribunal also finds that the appellant is due €501.70 (being the equivalent of two weeks’ gross pay) under the Minimum Notice and Terms of Employment Acts, 1973 to 2005.
