The respondent’s representative referred us to the case of HB Raylor v McArdle EAT 573/84 which concerned an employee who was inebriated on a building site, but was not working at the time. She also reminded us of British Leyland v Swift [1981] IRLR 91 where the Court of Appeal stated that the correct test is whether it was reasonable to dismiss, not whether a lesser sanction should have been imposed. Disability discrimination 72.
