Judicial Appointments
Dail Éireann — 2022-10-20
============================================================

Martin Kenny (SF), Sligo-Leitrim

I welcome the announcement in the budget that we are going to get more of a commitment to ensure that our judicial system, and particularly our courts system, get more resources. I ask the Minister to provide an update on the timelines for the appointment of new members of the Judiciary; and to provide a statement on the matter. Clearly, in many aspects of our Courts Service there are huge delays and backlogs, and a lot of this is down to not having enough staff, judicial staff in particular.
