- Interim relief application under section 128 ERA; the test is whether it is likely (a pretty good chance) that the claimant will succeed at final hearing; the need for a protected disclosure to have sufficient factual content and specificity; causation between disclosure and dismissal.

- Whether the claimant's claim for a declaratory remedy fell within the Employment Tribunal's contractual jurisdiction under Article 3 of the Employment Tribunals Extension of Jurisdiction (Scotland) Order 1994; whether the Tribunal retained jurisdiction over the respondent's counterclaim under Article 4; and whether the claimant was contractually liable for the early termination fee.
