    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Actually, a sober judgement would go the way you are saying but, I think I understand Hon. Kaluma. The frustration of Hon. Kaluma would be the sort of judgements that are coming out the courts that do not seem to adhere to the law. In all honesty, we do not need this amendment if the courts stayed true to what the Constitution says in Article 117. It is sufficient but, what he is doing is to make sure that there is no doubt whatsoever as to what Parliament intends. What we have seen in the case of Hon. Gor Sungu is worrying! There is no way that the court should have gone the way it did so long as you are dealing with a matter in good faith. I actually also believe that so long as you have the phrase “in good faith”, you are still not sufficiently insulating. We are basically doing the same thing. By using the phrase “in good faith”, we are still giving the discretion to the courts to determine what is good faith. They can decide that what I am saying now about them is not in good faith. We are still giving them that power and authority. In a sense it cures, but it does not exactly cure."
