The former Minister wrote to the board on 12 April and the Judicial Appointments Advisory Board replied on 16 May. I am fully aware the Minister was not in office at the time. On 23 May we know the Government nominated seven people to fill vacancies and pending vacancies on the High, Circuit and District Courts. Will the Minister explain why the vacancy on the Court of Appeal was not put on the Government agenda for 23 May?
