Uganda Broad casting cooperation v Kamukama (Misc. Application No. 638 of 2014) [2015] UGHCCD 92 (24 August 2015)
The High Court's unlimited original jurisdiction under the Constitution is not ousted by Section 93 of the Employment Act or any subordinate legislation. However, for efficient administration of justice and in line with legislative intent, employment disputes should first be handled by the Labour Officer and the Industrial Court, which are now functional. The respondent was not prejudiced by late service of the application, as she filed a reply. Accordingly, the matter is referred to the Kampala District Labour Officer for appropriate handling, and each party shall bear its own costs.
