• 19 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: However, the positions of management trainees as advertised were highly competitive and specialized and had to be open to all Kenyans. I can confirm to this House that Mumias Sugar Company gives special consideration to the local community for non-specialized positions such as cleaning, maintenance and transport.

• 19 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have actually tabled two lists. One list was a general one and for all the applicants. It contains the people who were selected and a pool of people in case those ones missed to come can be selected from. I had a specific list where I listed the 35 people who were selected and I have indicated the districts where they come from. If the hon.

(a) I am not aware that the union leaders were manhandled but I am aware that the meeting of the Kenya Power and Lighting Company Limited (KPLC) workers outside the company premises was disbursed by police after it threatened to turn violent. (b) I am not aware of the arrests but I wish to confirm to this House that no official of the Electrical and Allied Workers Union was victimized for exercising their constitutional rights. Indeed, one of the conditions of the return-to-work formula agreed upon between the workers’ union and the ... view
• 30 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, a return-to-work formula was reached between the management and the employees and a reconciliation process started, in which case the parties agreed on how to handle all the grievances. Reconciliation is still going on and I know the issue will be finalized very soon. view
