I am interested to hear that the employee in question in the Cook v West Yorkshire Probation Board (2004) ET 1800941/2004 case is suing the employer. As I understand it it was not an employee, but a prospective employee and Tracy was advised by her Barrister not to disclose to the prospective employee. Can you tell me more about this 'employee case' as I am interested to know?
