Labour law JUDGMENT A TO Z 2

JUDGMENT A TO Z 2

Court
TANZLII

The retrenchment was both substantively and procedurally unfair as the employer failed to disclose relevant information and did not properly consult the respondent or the trade union as required by section 38 of the Employment & Labour Relations Act. Notices provided were inadequate and there was no evidence of actual consultation. Acceptance of retrenchment benefits did not estop the respondent from challenging the retrenchment due to the unfair process.

Administrative law MISC CIVIL CAUSE NO

MISC CIVIL CAUSE NO

Court
TANZLII

The Minister failed to consult relevant local authorities before declaring the Pololeti Game Controlled Area, constituting procedural impropriety and illegality under section 16(1) of the Wildlife Conservation Act. However, the impugned GN No. 421 of 2022 was impliedly repealed when the President upgraded the area to a Game Reserve via GN No. 604 of 2022, rendering the application for certiorari and prohibition academic as the challenged order no longer exists.
