As your friend, I am very proud of you, and you know that. On a quick succession, I want to thank my colleagues for their support to this Statement on the Status of the Judiciary. Secondly, I want to confirm to my colleagues that our Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human rights, will from next week engage various stakeholders on this issue; the Attorney-General, the Cabinet Secretary, National Treasury and the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary, so that we can have a conversation. I want to welcome my colleague Senators during that time when we will have the CS, National Treasury, the Attorney-General and the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary to come, so that we can have a conversation. I have listened keenly to all your concerns on legal intervention and everything that you have said. As a Committee, we will follow up so that we can have a more powerful and independent Judiciary. Thank you."}
