    "content": "The other issue that needs to be looked at is the backlog of cases. These things that are affecting the efficiency in the Judiciary are all surrounded by the issue of funds. If Judges are not able to go handle cases, of course, there will be backlog. I believe that the most critical part is to ensure the independence of the Judiciary, including the availability of funds. We can do that by way of legislation. We can have an amendment to the Constitution that a certain percentage be put aside, but that amount should also be put to very strict audit to avoid wastage. Should there be any excess money that is not used at the end of a financial year, it should be ploughed back to the National Treasury for the benefit of other Government departments."
