    "content": "Hon. Speaker, this is just a Procedural Motion. The importance of the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) cannot be downplayed. It is important that we look at the nominees that have been sent to the Committee. The JSC is the body that nominates, vets and disciplines judges and magistrates. The JSC is a very important arm of the Government and, therefore, we have to follow the procedure that has been established. Most importantly, the composition of the JSC must meet the values set out in Article 10 of the Constitution. Therefore, in order for the Committee to be able to come up with a proper report, it is important that we have sufficient time. Extending the time does not cause prejudice to any of the persons. Therefore, we are going to confirm that once approved by the Committee, the nominees will meet the requirements expected of them as per the law. Therefore, I beg to second and pray that the extension be granted."
