Biya chairs Higher Judicial Council Session.
Biya chairs Higher Judicial Council Session.
The President of the Republic of Cameroon, His Excellency Paul BIYA has presided over a solemn session of the Higher Judicial Council. The nine-man council met at the Unity Palace on 7 June 2017.
It was an opportunity for recently-appointed members and the secretary of the institution to take their oath of office prior to the start of deliberations.
This was followed by an in-camera plenary. Seven cases of indiscipline in the magistracy were examined, while recommendations for the promotion and appointment of magistrates were submitted to the Head of State. The integration of pupil magistrates from the National School of Administration and Magistracy (ENAM) was equally scrutinised.
In his opening remarks the Head of State said “the oath some of you are going to take should be a source of inspiration for you and commitment to the service of a credible justice system that is attached to its principles, endowed with competent personnel, and appreciated by our fellow citizens”.
The meeting was organised in strict compliance with the exigencies of the COVID19 pandemic.
Below is a complete address of the Head of State:
The Minister of State, Minister of Justice and Keeper of the Seals, Vice-Chairperson of the Higher Judicial Council,
Ladies and Gentlemen, Members of the Higher Judicial Council,
Welcome to the conference room of Unity Palace on the occasion of the holding, today, of the Higher Judicial Council session for the year 2020. This session is taking place in the wake of the in-depth renewal of this institution, which saw the coming on board of new Substantive and Alternate Members, as well as a new Secretary.
This session is also marked by the absorption, into the Judiciary, of Legal Probationers who graduated from the recently created Common Law Section of the National School of Administration and Magistracy (ENAM). They are the products of the special recruitment of English-speaking legal and judicial personnel to apply this legal innovation in the jurisdictions of the Courts of Appeal of the North-West and South-West Regions. I extend my hearty congratulations to each and everyone.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Members of the Higher Judicial Council, You are required, through your opinions and proposals, to assist the President of the Republic, Chairperson of the Higher Judicial Council, in the performance of his constitutional duty as guarantor of the independence of the judiciary and the proper functioning of this State institution. That is a crucial role.
I urge you to discharge your duty with tact, objectivity and discernment. The wordings of the oath some of you are going to take should be a source of inspiration for you and commitment to the service of a credible justice system, that is attached to its principles, endowed with competent personnel, and appreciated by our fellow citizens.
While wishing our deliberations every success, I declare open the Higher Judicial Council session of 10 August 2020.
Thank you.
