Is there any additional information that would be recommended to the committee on the issue of complaints, sanctions and removal of judges? Work has been carried out on this in the past. I read a report some years ago, following on from the resignation of Judge Curtin, on whether an alarm system should be set up to identify issues that might arise. This would not necessarily require the same circumstances as those concerning the former judge I mentioned.
