JSE invites public input on shortlisted candidates

The Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has issued a call for public input on revised procedures governing the shortlisting, interviewing, and recommendation of candidates for judicial appointments. These updated procedures also aim to address breaches of JSC members' duties concerning confidentiality, the law, and ethical standards.

Written comments must be submitted by September 17th to the JSC Secretariat at the Office of the Chief Justice or the Registrar’s Office at the Constitutional Court in Braamfontein. The revised procedures, which are available on the South African Judiciary and Constitutional Court websites, are intended to strengthen the processes for judicial appointments and ensure that members uphold their legal and ethical obligations.
