Mr. Speaker, Sir, this matter is in relation to the recruitment by the Ministry of Education after they advertised vacancies for 2,660 lower cadre staff and received more than 200,000 applications. All appeal processes have been exhausted in this case, including interventions from my Ministry as far as the 837 candidates who were terminated by direction of the PSC are concerned. The PSC by a letter dated 11th April, 2012 this year, directed that it had considered the issue of appeals submitted by unsuccessful candidates and those whose services were terminated and decided that since the matter concerning the recruitment of lower cadre staff has been finalized, the appellant should be advised to accept this reality and apply as and when vacancies are advertised in future. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as per Article 249 (2) (a) and (b) of our Constitution, I have no powers this far to direct the Commission to reverse this decision or handle the matter differently. Thank you."
