Holding

The court dismissed the review motion as there was no basis for it, as the CBA was not applicable due to the Grievants no longer being employees of the Respondent.

Facts

The Claimant (KUCFAW) sought review of the court's decision regarding payments to Grievants who were no longer employees of the Respondent (Gakuyu Farmers Co-operative Society Limited). The CBA (Collective Bargaining Agreement) was not in effect at the time of the payments.

Issues

  1. Whether the court failed to consider the CBA in existence at the time of the payments.
  2. Whether the court's decision was based on a mistake or error apparent on the face of the record.

Reasoning

The court considered the CBA but determined it was not applicable because the Grievants were no longer employees of the Respondent. The court dismissed the review motion as there was no error on the face of the record.

Outcome

The motion for review was dismissed with costs.
