Chicken or the Egg: Culture Change or System Change?
12 February 2013
Nice job, MKDL. In light of the current constitutional crisis triggered by the conflict between prvious and current administrations, we need to make changes to how Supreme Court justices are appointed. It would be ideal to make all the supremes directly accountable to the people through a national election, but we also do not want to turn all the supremes into politicians. The best possible solution is to go back to the 1935 constitution in this regard: all Supreme Court appointees must be subject to legislative approval (in this case parliamentary approval).
I do know the reason for the existence of the Council in the 1987 Constitution, and if we go back to the 1935 mechanism of appointing SC judges, we may also have to get rid of the Council. I want other opinions on this.
The Commission of Appointments, for me, must be replaced by a select committee or a permanent committee created in the Parliament’s Standing Orders. This would make it easy to be understood.
