The High Court has obliged Kenya Tea Development Agency (KTDA) to continue deducting and remitting union dues from its unionisable employees.

This was after the Kenya Plantations and Agricultural Workers Union (KPAWU) moved to the Employment and Labour Relations Court to challenge the decision by KTDA to promote most of the staff, who are members of the union into management positions.
