I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to reform the way in which individuals are selected for appointments to the Judiciary by the Judicial Appointments Board.

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.
