I was surprised at some of the figures in Dr. Cahillane's submission - for example, that 30% of judges are women, and female representation is 30% in the Supreme Court, 22% in the Court of Appeal, 22% in the High Court, 42% in the Circuit Court and 30% in the District Court. I thought it would be lower. On last night's "Prime Time" there was a discussion about trying to increase female representation in politics to 30%. I am impressed with the figures.
