    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the next set of amendments are amendments which touch on the Civil Procedure Act and the Appellate Jurisdiction Act. The amendments to these two legislations are going to revolutionize the way we run our courts. They are not amendments which have just come out of the blues. They are amendments which have been carefully thought by the Rules Committee that was appointed by the Chief Justice to look into the issue of the management of court cases. Only last week, we passed the Arbitration Bill, which addressed part of the problem of the backlog of cases. Now we are going to address the way issues will be dealt with inside the court itself. This Committee went round a number of countries. They visited Uganda, India, Australia, United Kingdom and the USA to find out the modern methods of conducting cases in court; which modern methods are required used before a trial starts. As a result of all that,"
