Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court rejected Dundalk Institute of Technology’s appeal and upheld an extension of time for Colletta Dalikeni’s race discrimination complaint. The determination was signed on 5 November 2012. The appeal concerned the deadline only; the merits were not decided. Dalikeni said she delayed filing while waiting for the Institute’s investigation into issues she had raised. The Court considered it reasonable for her to expect the process to finish before the new academic year and accepted that her reasons justified extending the time limit.
