LABOUR APPEAL NO 9547 OF 2024 EDWARD A GWINO VRS TANZANIA BREWERIES LIMITED

Court

The proceedings of the consolidated trade inquiries and Reference No. 60A of 2008 are nullified for violation of statutory requirements, and no appeal can stem from a nullity.

The suit is therefore improperly before the court and must be struck out.
