I move amendment No. 86f:

In page 28, between lines 25 and 26, to insert the following:“Authorisation of Commission

41.Nothing in section 11(8)shall be construed as authorising the Commission to appoint any person, consultant or advisor to evaluate or assess the suitability of any person holding a judicial office for appointment to any other judicial office or to advise the Commission in respect of that matter.”.

This amendment serves to make something clear. By the way, I am absolutely confident that the Minister will accept this because rejecting it would have extraordinary consequences.
