“Pursuant to the ruling, the commission notes that through the letter dated 3rd November 2023, your office informed the commission of the court decision and requested that the commission proceeds to fill the nine [9] vacant positions [all inclusive] in the office of the Registrar of Trade Unions,’’ Part of the letter read
Further, the commission noted that on 19th February, 2024, the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection requested for the recruitment of 172 vacant posts in the State Department which included two posts of Principal Registrar of Trade Unions
The Public Service Commission notes with great concern that both requests did not have the indent for recruitment for the Office of Registrar of Trade Unions as directed by the Honourable Court
