    "content": " I am told that there is even chicken. I do not know the symbol of my colleague. It is a flower. When it withers, I do not know what happens. Clause 49 is what I had talked about discretion being billed in this Bill, that makes an otherwise very good law look very bad. When you say:- \"Where in the opinion of a labour officer, summary dismissal or termination of a contract of an employee is unjustified, the Labour Officer may recommend to the employer to pay to the employee any or all of the following---\" Here, you are taking a duty that would reasonably and ordinarily be exercised by either a tribunal or a court of law and giving it to a labour officer. This is how you breed corruption that we are fighting. The moment you say that the labour officer in his opinion decides that Mr. Muturi's cook must remain his even when he tries to poison him, then you are not passing a good law. You cannot have a labour officer to determine who is my employee. You must bear in mind that employment relations are very personal. Once they go sour, it is very difficult to force somebody to remain that person's employee, unless it is in corporate terms. The Minister should look at that. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on Page 200, it goes on to say that, that labour officer can order reinstatement of the employee or the re-engagement of the employee and so on and so forth."
