Cunningham v Quedos Ltd and another [2004] All ER (D) 376 (Feb) EAT (1 report relating to this case)
- Sex discrimination: More light shed on evidence required for prima facie case
  
  Date:
  
  21 May 2004
  
  In Cunningham v Quedos Ltd and John Wyeth & Brother Ltd, the EAT holds that an employment tribunal erred in law when it failed to draw the necessary inferences after making a number of findings indicating a prima facie case of sex discrimination in circumstances where a third party was alleged to have provided an employer with knowing assistance to discriminate under s.42 of the Sex Discrimination Act 1975.

LB Steel v (1) The Union of Post Office Workers and (2) The General Post Office [1977] IRLR 288 EAT (1 report relating to this case)
- Sex discrimination: EAT says "justifiable" means "necessary"
  
  Date:
  
  15 August 1977
  
  In the same way that the EAT's interpretations resuscitated the Equal Pay Act, recent decisions would now appear to be giving the Sex Discrimination Act a new lease of life. In Price v The Civil Service Commission and Steel v The Post Office, the EAT takes the same broad, commonsense approach to the indirect discrimination provisions of the Sex Discrimination Act that it has to the like work provisions of the Equal Pay Act.
