<p>The new Employment Tribunal rules of procedure, which implemented the recommendations
of the Underhill Review, were implemented on 29 July 2013. These rules allow tribunals
to identify weak or vexatious claims at an early stage through an initial sift and
to manage them effectively through measures such as deposit orders. Greater flexibility
to apply a deposit order to parts of a claim or response helps to manage the expectations
of claimants as to the strength of their claim and encourage them to consider more
carefully what parts of their claim they want to take forward.</p><p> </p>
