The question is simple. I ask the Leader to consider facilitating a discussion on the role of the Judicial Appointments Advisory Board with a view to giving it a new role as the body that would recommend judicial appointments in future. That would be more transparent and honest. For the next number of years, people who are not affiliated to Fine Gael or the Labour Party will not have a look-in. Let us be honest about that, and it is unfortunate.
