Explanatory note

These Regulations, which come into operation on 1st June 1976, enable an industrial tribunal to order any amount under an award relating to redundancy payments or unfair dismissal to be paid by the employer to the person appointed by the tribunal for the benefit of the estate of the deceased employee.

They also enable such person to enforce any such award for the benefit of the estate of the deceased employee without letters of administration or probate of any will or, in Scotland, confirmation.
