    "content": "Order! Hon. Members, as you will realise, immediately after Question Time, we will be in the Committee of the whole House to consider the Labour Institutions Bill. I have received a proposed amendment from Mr. Muite, the hon. Member for Kabete Constituency, to delete Clause 28 and in place thereof, substitute with the following provisions:- \"28(1) The award or decision of the National Labour Court shall be final; (2) The award, decision or proceedings of the National Labour Court shall not be questioned or reviewed, and shall not be restrained or removed by prohibition, injunction, certiorari or otherwise, either at the insistence of the Government or otherwise.\" I have looked at the content of that amendment. I am aware of a decision of the High Court on 15th February, 2006, which declared Section 17(2) of the Trade Disputes Act to be unconstitutional. That section is worded exactly the same way that the proposed amendment by Mr. Muite is worded. It cannot, therefore, be introduced in this House as it has been considered as unconstitutional. So, it will not be allowed."
