Place: no local area assigned from the source.

A discrimination complaint against Castletroy Taverns Limited, trading as Finnegans Bar and Restaurant, ended after Christopher McCarthy failed to attend a remote Workplace Relations Commission hearing. The decision, dated 4 October 2024, says the adjudicator refused an adjournment because there was no reasonable explanation for his non-attendance. McCarthy’s complaint alleged discrimination on the Traveller Community ground. The bar denied the allegation and attended with a witness and legal representative. The merits were not decided.
