"content": "I think it is very important as a Parliament that we are seen to do things professionally. I would like to say that we have come a long way. When Members are commenting on individual judges, they have their right to give their opinion; but let us not throw away bath water with the baby. Let us also not rubbish the Judiciary wholesale. People slaughtered each other in this country in 2008 because they refused to go to court, because they did not believe in the courts. At the moment, there is an impression that the Judiciary is rubbish and corrupt. I think that does not argur well for the country. There are mechanisms to deal with those who are not doing well. I believe that the Budget and Appropriations Committee did a good job. Even if it reduced the money, it did it professionally. Therefore, we want the Judiciary to feel that Parliament is there and we want the Judiciary to become stronger but, of course, within its limits."
