Message | Mr Speaker, This is not part of the national Government agenda so we consider it a free vote. We believe elected judges are subject to corruption as they cannot farily judge those that elect them. We also believe national Government should manage social security, for the simple reason that local Government have boundaries that conflict, where the countrywide national Government does not, meaning no discrepancies. |
