Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant, a former employee of the 1st respondent, sought review of a determination that his terminal benefits be calculated using an exempted salary rate of $220 per month. The exemption certificate was granted by the 2nd respondent in 2015, but at that time the 1st respondent (a council-run school) did not fall within the 2nd respondent's jurisdiction, which only extended to government schools until December 2019.
