    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Indeed, you are right. As you spoke, I was flipping through the Fifth Schedule. It is true that this Bill had a timeframe of two years. It is one of those serious errors of both the 10th and 11th Parliaments. Let us commend the 11th Parliament for correcting this alteration. Indeed, we had occasion to discuss this matter in the 10th Parliament and it was admitted that this was one of those little things that could easily have sent the 10th Parliament packing. Let me start by commending the 11th Parliament because we have done extremely well in ensuring that the timetable set out in the Fifth Schedule is met and that we beat all the deadlines as set in that Fifth Schedule. This is an important and crucial Bill. It is a Bill which seeks to actualise the intention of Article 173 of the Constitution, which provides the constitutional basis for the Judiciary Fund. What is significant about this Fund is that it shall make the Judiciary to be truly autonomous and to operate in a manner that will even prevent or correct the current perception that the JSC has an overbearing control over the operations of the Judiciary."
