I'm not expert, and I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can still go down the unfair dismissal route even after going through the current discplinary route.
If the company has evidence of poor performance they have honestly got nothing to worry about. They can implement performance targets in the contract even if needed.

To me this proposed change of legislation is nothing more than to allow companies to sack people on the whim when they need a quick cash injection.

Osborne pondering to businesses again.
