I do not find that argument rational. Let us suppose the commission was looking at candidates and found that it could not recommend any of them.

Does it mean we will leave a vacancy and appoint no one? Will we just let the Government pick its political friends for the job or will we ask the commission to have another trawl to see if it can come up with someone fit for the job?
