Mr. Speaker, Sir, recent developments have cast a spotlight on the strained relationship between the Judiciary and legal professionals, with concerns being raised regarding the state of the Judiciary and the efficiency of the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) in promoting and facilitating judicial independence and accountability and in exercising disciplinary control over judicial officers. In the Statement, the Committee should:- (1) Explain the underlying causes of the ongoing conflict between the Judiciary and legal professionals, stating whether the conflict stems from judicial overreach, lawyer misconduct, inefficiency or failure in regulatory oversight. (2) Provide us a report on all previous processes for the removal of Judges from office, specifying the grounds for removal in each case and stating whether the procedural steps followed by the JSC, complied with the provisions of Article 168 of the Constitution. (3) Evaluate the legality of the timeframe for resolution of complaints against Judges and judicial officers by the JSC. (4) State whether the Commission has adequate resources, mechanisms and structural frameworks to ensure timely and effective handling of such complaints and, if not, disclose the gaps and the plans in place to address them; and (5) Outline the role of the Standing Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs and Human Rights in enhancing judicial efficiency, transparency and accountability.
