With a view to making an application under section 71(1) or 72(4) in relation to a person the Commission may present to an employment tribunal a complaint that he has done an act within the jurisdiction of an employment tribunal, and if the tribunal considers that the complaint is well-founded they shall make a finding to that effect and, if they think it just and equitable to do so in the case of an act contravening any provision of Part II may also (as if the complaint had been presented by the person discriminated against) make an order such as is referred to in section 65(1)(a), or a recommendation such as is referred to in section 65(1)(c), or both.
Subsection (1) is without prejudice to the jurisdiction conferred by section 72(2).
Any finding of an employment tribunal under—
(a) this Act, or
(b) the Equal Pay Act 1970,
in respect of any act shall, if it has become final, be treated as conclusive—
In sections 71 and 72 and this section, the acts “within the jurisdiction of an employment tribunal” are those in respect of which such jurisdiction is conferred by sections 63 and 72 and by section 2 of the Equal Pay Act 1970.
