LADY JUSTICE LINDA LILLIAN TUMUSIIME MUGISHA APPOINTED NEW HEAD JUDGE – INDUSTRIAL COURT

Tumusiime: Who is the new Industrial Court Head Judge? | Monitor

What you need to know:

Born on April 25, 1969, the 53-year-old judge was at the time of her appointment the deputy head of the same Industrial Court, where she had been for the last eight years.

The court was established under Section 7 of the Labour Disputes (Arbitration and Settlement) Act, 2006 to settle unresolved disputes between employers and trade unions over terms and conditions of employment.

It had at one time been in a limbo for more than 10 years but it was later revived.

President Museveni has appointed Justice Lillian Tumusiime Mugisha as the new Head Judge of the Industrial Court. Justice Tumusiime now replaces outgoing Head Judge Asaph Ruhinda Ntengye, who left the service after clocking the mandatory retirement age of 65 earlier this year. She has for the previous eight years been deputising Justice Ntengye.

The Industrial Court mainly deals with labour disputes. The court was established under Section 7 of the Labour Disputes (Arbitration and Settlement) Act, 2006 to settle unresolved disputes between employers and trade unions over terms and conditions of employment. It had at one time been in a limbo for more than 10 years but it was later revived.

When contacted last evening on how she feels about her new appointment, Justice Tumusiime said: “I can’t make a comment now until I am vetted and approved by Parliament.”
It was not clear by press time when Parliament’s Appointments Committee will sit and vet the new judges.

Justice Tumusiime will be deputised by Mr Wabwire Musaana. Little is known about the new deputy head as he is coming from private practice.
