The Rule-making Committee constituted to review Judicial Commission of Pakistan Rules 2010 met with Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah and Justice Manzoor Ahmed Malik, former SC judge in the chair on Friday, a press release said.
The meeting was held to finalise the draft rules of procedure for the commission in making appointments of the judges of the constitutional courts complying with the collegial and inclusive decision-making process enshrined in Article 175-A of the Constitution.
The committee took up the recommendations and suggestions of the members. Expressing gratitude to the members, the committee also incorporated the suggestions/recommendations received from the members and considered input from Justice Aalia Neelum of Lahore High Court, whose name was inadvertently not mentioned.
The committee deliberated upon the the 2nd revised draft of the proposed Rules and after threadbare discussions approved the same with few amendments. The approved draft Rules will be placed before the Judicial Commission of Pakistan in its next meeting for finalisation.
