In the second episode of Series 2 of Having A NatteRR, we discuss the case of Sunshine Hotel v Goddard in which the Employment Appeal Tribunal held that there will not always be a requirement that an employer hold an investigation meeting before holding a disciplinary meeting in order for a dismissal to be fair.
