    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister has indicated that there are about 377 pending cases, some of which have been disposed of - about 134. It is clear that there is a serious backlog. Shortage of judges, particularly in the High Court, has been one bottleneck in dealing with corruption. There were some judges that were appointed earlier. There was Abida Ali, Muchelule and the rest. But they were never sworn in. Could the Minister tell us what happened to those judges? There is a serous shortage of judges in the Hight Court and that has resulted in a backlog. Could she tell us what the Government is doing about those matters?"
