I support the amendment. The principle of non-discrimination arises in this context. When I withdrew amendments that I had tabled on Committee Stage, I did so specifically in order to be able to propose them again on Report Stage. I refer to amendments Nos. 62, 65, 69 and 71, which are further down the list. Unfortunately, it looks like these important amendments will not be reached because of the guillotine. Like the amendment before the House, my four amendments relate to the principle that there should be gender diversity and gender balance in the composition of the Judiciary. I am sorry that we will not get to them. I support amendment No. 22.
