</div>INTRODUCTION<o:p></o:p>The
Complainants were allegedly dismissed summarily for participating in an
'illegal strike action". They are of the view that the action of the
Respondent is unfair. They make reference to Section 63 of the Labour Act, Act
651 to support their case.<o:p></o:p>In
the light of the above reason, they want the Commission to intervene.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>OBSERVATION AND DECISION<o:p></o:p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:5.0pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:

mso-border-shadow:yes">The
Commission is of the view that the Complainants can have their case redressed
expeditiously by the Labour Tribunal established under the Labour Act. The
Commission therefore advises the Complainants to avail themselves of that
forum.<o:p></o:p>The
Commission declines to investigate the case as per Section 13(1)(a) of Act 456
which states that:<o:p></o:p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:5.0pt;

of the investigation of any complaint it appears to the commission that under
the law or existing administrative practice there is adequate remedy for the
complaint, whether or not the complainant has availed himself of it, it may
refuse to investigate the matter further."<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>
