    "content": "In fact, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I must share with the House that the provisions of the existing law have already been found by the High Court to be unconstitutional to the extent to which we tried to transit the current members of the Industrial Court to become the new Industrial Court. This is a court of equivalent standing as the High Court, but it is not the High Court. Therefore, what we did with the Environment and Land Court is exactly what we are doing here. We are streamlining, harmonizing, ensuring that this jurisdiction is created by law but, above all else, we are taking the courts from the Executive. I always thought that, that is what the Back Bench always wanted. We are taking the Industrial Court from the Executive, returning it to where it should always have been – with the Judiciary – under the authority of the JSC and the Chief Justice."
