This is dependent on a number of other amendments that have been debated but which have not yet been put. Deputy Ryan is right. As of now we have agreed a 13-member commission, and of those 13 members we have the President of the High Court, the Chief Justice, the President of the Circuit Court, the President of the District Court and the Attorney General. The balance can be made up of lay members to be nominated. These are contingent on amendments we have yet to reach.
