Volume 124, Issue 51A
Royal Gazette

Note: The grounds for promulgation of this Act are as follows: The Charter of the Courts of Justice designates that there be one Vice President of the Supreme Court of Justice, one Vice President of the Court of Appeal, and one Vice President for each Regional Court of Appeal, and the Courts of Justice Judicial Administration Commission may, in the event of necessity for the benefit of the public service, permit the appointment of more than one but not than three Vice Presidents of the Supreme Court of Justice upon the approval of the President of the Supreme Court of Justice. However, owing to the increasing workload of the President of the Supreme Court of Justice, President of the Court of Appeal, and Presidents of the Regional Courts of Appeal at present, it is appropriate to allow the increase of the number of the Vice Presidents of the Supreme Court of Justice to be not more than six and the number of the Vice Presidents of the Court of Appeal or Vice Presidents of a Regional Court of Appeal to be not more than three, in order to ease the burden of the President of the Supreme Court of Justice, President of the Court of Appeal, and Presidents of the Regional Courts of Appeal. It is therefore necessary to enact this Act.
