    "content": "On the issue of salaries which has been raised by the former Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs, she is acutely aware that when the salaries came before the Cabinet, I moved and she seconded. We worked together to say that what had been offered was not good enough. But a bird in hand is worth two in the bush. The Cabinet kindly agreed, in fact, as an exception that the terms and conditions of service of the State Law Office and the Judiciary will be reviewed within a year. I know that the Permanent Salaries Review Board is already looking into that as an exception because it is recognised that our terms are too low and the capable staff are leaving the Chambers. Again, this is something that the committee recognised. I am appealing to the committee that rather than just ambushing me like this as they have ambushed me today, let us work together to carry out the reforms that are necessary because we are here. We can work together, particularly in terms of human and financial resources and computerising everything within the Chambers."
