Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 71262, member: 636"] Justice and labor relations minister Wise Immanuel has scheduled discussions with magistrates after withdrawing his urgent court application when judicial officers denied under oath participating in any strike or work slowdown. Officials confirmed the planned engagement through a formal notice. Immanuel had maintained that salary negotiations and what he characterized as unlawful industrial action required separate handling, refusing dialogue while asserting magistrates were striking illegally. Judicial officers recently accepted enhanced compensation terms. The minister reversed his legal strategy after magistrates submitted sworn statements contradicting claims of coordinated work stoppages at courthouses across Namibia. [/QUOTE]
