    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, one of the serious impediments to efficient administration of justice in our judicial premises is the lack of proper recording of court proceedings. Even as we speak now, our courts do not have facilities for a HANSARD system. Court proceedings rely 100 per cent on the discretion of the magistrate or the judge taking notes long-hand. But, even more fundamental, we have always wanted the Judiciary to have budgetary independence. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, could we get a commitment that, indeed, you will move fast in order to give the Judiciary budgetary independence, so that they can carry out some of the very, very necessary reforms in that particular arm of the Government?"
