    "content": " (a) The employees had formed a welfare and sports association to cater for their interests. They operated a club at Kenstel which after the split was relocated to Telkom Exchange, Ngong Road, which is the property of Telkom Kenya Limited. From the information provided by Telkom-Kenya Limited, the welfare and sports association was running its affairs independent of the corporation, KPTC, and had its own employees. However, the Telkom Kenya Limited provided the Association with the premises to operate their business. Mr. Gideon Kula was one of the employees of the welfare and sports association. This club is exclusively run by a committee of officials elected by members of staff. Given that there have been several retrenchments, it is difficult to know the present officials. Efforts are being made now to identify the bonafide officials of the Welfare and Sports Association to address the matter accordingly. (b) In the light of this, the Minister intends not to take action against Telkom Kenya. However, the Minister has directed the Labour Commissioner to investigate the matter and take appropriate action against the bonafide employer as provided in the labour laws."
