It is what the AG, PSC and other parties are opposing. They faulted the President for ‘unconstitutionally creating an additional twenty seven offices in the public service’. They subsequently obtained orders stopping the 50 from assuming office and drawing salaries.

The case was filed by a Kenyan Citizen Eliud Matindi and another by LSK in conjunction with Katiba Institute. They were later appointed but before they could assume office, a case was filed in court challenging the same. Judge Monica Mbaru in dismissing the case said the commission followed the requisite legal procedure in its bid to establish the office to the extent of inviting public views.įollowing this decision, President William nominated fifty persons for approval to be appointed to the office of CAS. The said court dismissed a case that had been filed by the Law Society of Kenya in which it sought to declare the CAS position as illegal. While highlighting their submissions, the two told a three-judge bench constituted by Chief Justice Martha Koome not to hear the case arguing that the issues of constitutionality and public participation were already dealt with by the Labour Court in February this year. The matter is currently before the High Court, Constitutional and Human Rights Division. The PSC and the Attorney General said the three petitions challenging the appointments have been filed in the wrong court. The Public Service Commission has maintained that the dispute challenging the appointment of the Chief Administrative Secretaries (CASs) is a reserve for the Employment and Labor Court.
