    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Bill further seeks to create the Office of the Registrar of the Supreme Court with clear functions and responsibilities. This is found in Clauses 9 and 10 of the Bill. This will free the Chief Justice and the other judges of the Supreme Court from the mundane procedural and administrative matters of the court and direct their attention and energies to the more substantive business of the court. I would hate to see the Judiciary overtake Parliament in the process of implementation of the Constitution, the reason being that the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has already advertised and announced that it will begin the recruitment of judges, including judges of the Supreme Court, on Monday, 6th June, 2011, which is only next Monday. Therefore, the timing of this Bill this afternoon is fundamental."
