After close to two years, the way has been paved for the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) to be reconstituted after the Parliamentary Committee on Appointments on Wednesday finally agreed to a nominee.
Stabroek News has been reliably informed that the nominee is a former Appellate Judge.
Chairman of the Committee Dr. George Norton told Stabroek News that the decision was made at a committee meeting from which members of the opposition were absent, despite being given notice.
For some time there has not been a quorum for the meeting.
However, Norton said that most of the government members turned up on Wednesday, paving the way for the meeting to take place.
