    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, in this Session, this House has acquitted itself very well as far as legislation is concerned, especially in improving, enhancing and raising the profile of our Judiciary. We have dealt with the Small Claims Court and the High Court. Now we are seized of the Court of Appeal (Organization and Administration) Bill, 2015 in fulfillment of our responsibility under Article 164 of the Constitution. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this is a very progressive Bill but a few issues come to mind. One, one would imagine in terms of neatness, we would have consolidated all these scattered pieces of legislation. It will be neater if we dealt with all these rather than having a multiplicity of legislation. We sort of consolidate because, indeed, if you look at all the pieces of legislation I have mentioned, you will find that the content and the objective is pretty much the same. That is something that the State Law Office might want to give thought to in terms of consolidation."
