`get_tribunal_decision`

Pack: uk-tribunals · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/uk-tribunals/mcp

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/get_tribunal_decision for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Fetch one tribunal decision by the link returned from search_tribunal_decisions (a GOV.UK path like “/employment-tribunal-decisions/…”). Returns the full extracted decision text where GOV.UK publishes it (most employment, appeal, residential-property and administrative-appeals decisions), the decision categories, the decision date, and a pdf_url to the original judgment PDF. Tax and Chancery Chamber decisions are PDF-only on GOV.UK — text_available is false for those and only pdf_url is returned.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`link`	string	yes	GOV.UK path from a search result, e.g. “/employment-tribunal-decisions/r-ghiotto-v-hawkwell-house-hotel-ltd-6009226-slash-2024”.
`max_chars`	number	no	Maximum characters of decision text to return (default 40000). The response says whether it was truncated.
