Cancer is listed as a disability under the UK Equality Act 2010, protecting sufferers from discrimination. Lawyers for NatWest and the 44-year-old risk and compliance officer clashed on Monday at the Central London Employment Tribunal over document disclosures relating to her income since she left the bank. The case is unusual because most employment claims are settled out of court. Charles Crow, a lawyer for NatWest, conceded Willis's team could have been told earlier how many experts the bank was now calling. "We recognise the extremely difficult personal circumstances in this case and that there were things the bank did not get right," a NatWest spokesperson said.

Charles Crow, a lawyer for NatWest, conceded Willis's team could have been told earlier how many experts the bank was now calling. But both sides should have realised that a two-day hearing would not be enough to deal with disagreements, he said.
