    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Prof. Ongeri made certain proposals and we are looking at them. We are going to consider his proposal, particularly on Clause 13(c ) (e), that is, we must protect judges from flimsy complaints. In fact, for the benefit of Prof. Ongeri, it is important for the country to know that when we were passing this Constitution for ourselves, we did not actually provide in Article 162 for a procedure for complaints against judges in the superior courts. The only procedure provided for in the current Constitution is for complaints against the magistrates and not the superior courts. When we have to finalize the issues that we are undertaking, it will be one of the first amendments that I will be recommending to this country; we should open a window, so that routine complaints against judges may be noted and recorded, so long as they are not flimsy."
