- Court
- Court of First Instance
- Case number
- HCLA40/2003
The 1997 Concessional Travel Policy replaced the earlier Conditions of Service as the claimant had accepted the Policy; FOC tickets are a fringe benefit/privilege that can only be enjoyed while employment subsists (and require staff identification), so any outstanding but unused entitlement does not survive termination by the employer; therefore the claimant had no right to FOC travel after dismissal and the appeal is dismissed.
