JUDGMENT The claimant’s application to strike out the response under rule 38(1)(a) and (possibly) rule 38(1)(b)) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 is refused.

REASONS Introduction and background

1. I have to resolve two applications on the basis of written submissions, without a hearing: a. the claimant’s application to strike out the whole of the response; Case Number: 8000022/2026 Page 2 b. the claimant’s application for permission to amend the claim.

2. Since the first of those decisions is a judgment and the second is an order, I have dealt with them in separate documents. This is the judgment dealing with the application to strike out the whole of the response. Application
