PETALING JAYA: De facto law minister Zaid Ibrahim said today (8 May) the composition and structure of the Judicial Appointment Commission will be finalised in three weeks.
The Minister in the Prime Minister's Department said his office was in the process of obtaining feedbacks from various quarters including the Bar Council, the judiciary, political parties and other relevant bodies on the matter. "We will know the exact composition then. We expect to see between 12 and 14 members but it has yet to be decided. We do not want too many members," he told reporters at the Parliament lobby according to Bernama. The commission's proposed set up is identify and recommend names for judicial appointment. Zaid said the commission would be formed based on the British model but not all aspects of it would be adopted. (MySinchew)
