I still believe that confining membership to the legal profession is very restrictive. The Minister mentioned the Human Rights Commission. If one had people from it or perhaps a former chairman, they would be eminently qualified to navigate whatever legal obstacles were in their way. The provision confining membership to the legal profession is unnecessary for such an appeals tribunal.
