    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir; first, I want to agree with Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko about the leadership of the union; it can be led by anybody, provided that the members agree. Secondly, if what Sen. Malala has said is true, then it is a very unfortunate incident because there is no union and there is no law that mandates anybody to deduct or to force somebody to be a union member even if there is a union in that company or any association. Joining a union is voluntary. Third, deduction of salary is also voluntary. Which means that you have to sign and accept. However, more fundamentally, this is advice to Sen. Musuruve and possibly to the Committee, this is a very unfortunate incident; that both Article 36 and 41 where the trade unionism is formed is under the Bill of Rights. This is the only chapter in the Constitution that allows any person to seek an order on a threat, not the actual action. The threat that somebody can deduct your salary and force you to be in a union is enough for you to seek the attention of the court under Chapter 5. Sen. (Dr.) Langat is here; an injunction should be issued and the Committee can, in fact, on its own motion, even before they bring a Report, advice the Union and the employer on those articles of the Constitution. The violation thereof is a very unfortunate incidence, Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir."
