Its principle that in allowing a derivative claim to continue the court will have regard to the majority of the minority s views has been codified in CA 2006 section 263 4 . Facts Minority shareholders claimed to recover money paid away contrary to the financial assistance prohibition now CA 2006 section 678 and being ultra vires . They had 14 of the company s shares, the defendants held 63 , and other shareholder, who did not want litigation, held 21 . Judgment Knox J held that if the claimants were a minority even after the wrongdoers were taking out of the equation, then there is no right to sue, even with a Foss v Harbottle exception. Independence is a question of fact. He followed Burland v Earle in Lord Davey s dicta that shareholders cannot have a bigger right to sue than the company with its procedural and substantive limitations.

Facts A lady named Gabrielle Defrenne worked as a stewardess for the airline Sabena . The airline paid her less than her male colleagues who did the same work. Ms Defrenne complained that this violated her right to equal treatment on grounds of gender under article 119 of the Treaty of the European Community , Now Article 157 TFEU prior to the Lisbon Treaty, this was article 141 TEC Expand section date July 2010 Judgment The European Court of Justice held that article 119 of the Treaty of the European Community was of such a character as to have horizontal direct effect, and therefore enforceable not merely between individuals and the government, but also between private parties. Cquote The prohibition on discrimination between men and women applies not only to the action of public authorities, but also extends to all agreements which are intended to regulate paid labour collectively, as well as to contracts between individuals. Article 157 TFEU 119 TEEC, 141 TEC was invoked which stated Each Member State shall ensure that the principle of equal pay for male and female workers for equal work or work of equal value is applied .

Facts Mr Smallbone had been the managing director of Trustor AB, and it was claimed that in breach of fiduciary duty transferred money to a company that he owned and controlled. Trustor AB applied to treat receipt of the assets of that company as the same as the assets of Mr Smallbone. It argued that Smallbone s company was a sham to help breaches of duty, it had been involved in improper acts and the interests of justice demanded the result. The case against Mr Smallbone was eventually dropped by Trustor AB as there was no breach of fiduciary duty. Judgment Sir Andrew Morrit VC held that there was enough evidence to lift the veil on the basis that it was a mere facade . He noted the tension between Adams v Cape Industries plc and later cases and stated that impropriety is not enough to pierce the veil, but the court is entitled to do so where a company is used as a device or fa ade to conceal the true facts and the liability of the responsible individuals. Cquote 22 The second proposition also appears to me to be too widely stated unless used in conjunction with the first. Companies are often involved in improprieties.

Infobox Court Case name London Underground Ltd v Edwards No 2 court Employment Appeal Tribunal image caption date decided full name citations judges prior actions subsequent actions opinions transcripts keywords London Underground Ltd v Edwards No 2 1997 IRLR 157 is a leading discrimination case relevant for UK labour law , concerning objective justification of indirect discrimination. Facts Ms Edwards, a single parent, could not keep up child care after the Underground altered its shift system. She had worked as a train driver for ten years. The Tribunal held that they could have easily, without losing the objectives of their plan and reorganisation, have accommodated the applicant who was a long serving employee They did not address themselves to these issues Judgment Morison J dismissed the employer s appeal. It may be that London Underground would have wished to implement the single parent link but gave in to pressure from their predominantly male workforce. First, he said, the more clear it is that the employers unreasonably failed to show flexibility in their employment practices, the more willing the tribunal should be to make a finding of unlawful discrimination. Second, employers can change rosters, but should carefully consider the impact which a new roster might have on a section of their workforce. Third, nothing said here should be construed as favouring positive discrimination.

It held that there is an implied term of good faith in an employment contract, and if the employer withdraws this, it is a breach of contract. The consequence was that in a strike, employees merely working to rule needed not to be paid, because they had only partly performed their obligations. Facts ASLEF s members were railway workers. Their industrial action was to comply strictly with the rule book of the British Railways Board . The Secretary of State intervened to get a court order for a ballot of the workforce. ASLEF argued that the criteria of the time, that there was irregular industrial action short of a strike was not satisfied, because workers had not breached their contracts. Judgment Lord Denning MR held that work to rule was a breach because though the rule book was not a contractual document, it was an implied term that the employer s business would not be wilfully obstructed. Cquote He can withdraw his goodwill if he pleases. But what he must not do is wilfully to obstruct the employer as he goes about his business. That is plainly the case where a man is employed singly by a single employer There are many branches of our law when an act which would otherwise be lawful is rendered unlawful by the motive or object with which it is done.

Kirmani v Captain Cook Cruises Pty Ltd No 2 1985 HCA 27 1985 159 Commonwealth Law Reports CLR 461, was a decision handed down in the High Court of Australia on 17 April 1985 concerning Section 74 of the Australian Constitution section 74 of the Constitution of Australia . The Court denied an application by Attorney General for Queensland for a certificate that the questions of law arising from the Court s decision in Kirmani v Captain Cook Cruises Pty Ltd No 1 ought to be determined by the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council Privy Council . Until the Kirmani v Captain Cook Cruises Pty Ltd No 2 case, decisions of the High Court of Australia could be appealed to the Privy Council, if the High Court allowed it.

Facts Five of seven staff at the Centre, N15 4GZ, were white and one black person was leaving. The Centre advertised for an Afro Caribbean and Mr Marshall, a white man, was turned down for an interview. The children were 84 black. The Centre argued their advertisement was covered by RRA 1976 s 5 2 d and argued that a black person would be better at maintaining a cultural link, dealing with parents and speaking and reading sometimes in dialect, as well as looking after their skin and health, including plaiting hair. The Tribunal held the only criterion on which Mr Marshall would not be as effective would be reading and speaking, but this had been the least emphasised of the centre s justifications in the nature of a desirable extra and no more . Judgment The Employment Appeal Tribunal allowed the appeal, holding that the Tribunal were not allowed to disregard a factor relied on as a genuine occupational qualification defence, unless it was so trivial that it was de minimis , or that it was a sham or a smokescreen . That was not the case here, and the justification was relatively unimportant but not trivial .

Mrs Webb was hired to replace Mrs Stewart, though it was envisaged that she would stay on working after Mrs Stewart came back.
