Some Industrial Court Judges have been accused of seeking to procure extensions in office by delaying their judgments.
The allegation was made by lawyers for trade union activist and former Oilfield Workers’ Trade Union (OWTU) branch secretary Anthony Dopson in a request under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) sent to the court’s president Heather Seale, last week.
In the correspondence obtained by Guardian Media, attorney Aasha Ramlal, of Freedom Law Chambers, said that Dopson was concerned with the timely delivery of judgments by the court.
