This case relates to unequal application of unemployment and pay-related benefit to married women in comparison with married/single men and single women. Tricia Lang was paid unemployment benefit and pay-related benefit for 312 days from date of initial payment, rather than 390 days which was applicable in case of married/single men and single women, she received a lower rate of payment of unemployment benefit than applicable for married/single men and single women and was only entitled to receive Unemployment Assistance on a more restrictive and discriminatory basis.
Case was adjourned, April 1990, on basis of offer of £500 to Tricia Lang and her husband in settlement of part of claim relating to unemployment assistance and ceiling on married couples, and adjournment of remainder of case and question of legal costs pending outcome of decisions in Cotter & McDermott and Emmott (P143/1/2/34). Final outcome of case unknown. See also P143/1/2/37.
