    "content": "May 17, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 1463 Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think that my reading of this situation and the interest of this country is for labour to be organised and to create a Labour Board that is independent of influences of labour, employers and, indeed, even influences by the Minister. When this board is supposed to advise both the Chief Justice and even the Minister himself, we are making provisions that I believe have been detrimental to organised labour and trade unions in this country. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think we all know and it is in our charters, that the Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU) is the most representative organisation of trade unions. The Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) is the most representative organisation for employers. Why do we seem to be shying away from identifying them? This same House, when approving the membership to the Kenya Advisory Anti-Corruption Board (KAACB made specific references to these particular organisations to make nominations."
