NCT centre worker sues for unfair dismissal

Richard Hoban, of Norwood Park, Cobh, Co Cork, claimed staff and test inspectors were encouraged to “bring in cars” to fill test slots and quotas and the cars would inevitably pass.
An Employment Appeals Tribunal heard Mr Hoban, who began working at the centre in 2006, was out of work for six to seven months after he suffered a nervous breakdown in 2008.
