"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there was something going wrong in both sectors. In the health and education sectors there was a Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). What one would have expected is that something like a CBA is a thing that various employees get into. It is an agreement about specific things; payment, conditions of work, allowance and probable expansion of work in terms of occupations that are there. A CBA conducts and holds quite a lot. That is very critical. The expectation is always that once a CBA agreement has been entered, each part of those who have bargained for it; the Government and the employees must have it end up with an agreement that will lead to some understanding. Sometimes the CBA will not end up with exactly the same terms but somewhere along the line, there will be a level of negotiation, entry and discussions to ensure that work is not interrupted. We have had an interruption in two sectors. That is almost completely unacceptable. 50 years after Independence, we have lectures and doctors on strike. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
