Holding
The Court orders immediate compliance with the SRC Circular and payment of costs to the Claimant.
Facts
The County Government of Migori issued a circular on August 10, 2023, increasing the commuter allowance for Job Groups CPSB 13-17 to Kshs. 3,000/-. The ECDE Teachers Association requested a review of the allowance, but received no response. The Claimant, Kenya County Government Workers Union, filed a suit seeking enforcement of the review.
Issues
- Compliance with the SRC Circular Ref. No. SRC/TS/29(81) of 10th August 2023
- Payment of costs to the Claimant
Reasoning
The Respondents did not respond to the Association's requests for a review of the commuter allowance. The letter dated 26th November 2025 is not addressed to the Claimant and is therefore not genuinely geared toward resolving the impasse.
