The Workplace Relations Commission found Paul Hughes’s unfair-dismissal and minimum-notice complaints against Medtronic Vascular Galway Unlimited Company Medtronic Ireland “not well founded” after he did not attend the hearing. The decision was dated 6 October 2021; the merits were not decided. The respondent attended and rejected both complaints. The adjudication officer said Hughes had been informed of the hearing and that his absence was unexplained.
