The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment.
The respondents requested early dismissal under section 53(8) of the Human Rights Code, arguing the subject-matter was the same as a prior complaint filed with the Commission.
The Tribunal previously directed the Commission to provide a statement of facts regarding the processing of the applicant's complaint.
The Commission provided the statement, explaining the complaint was never formally filed.
The respondents then requested further information and documents from the Commission.
The Tribunal found the Commission's statement of facts adequately complied with its direction and denied the respondents' request for further information, granting them five days to provide submissions on the section 53(8) issue.
