Sri Lanka's parliament has approved a proposal to increase the number of High Court judges from the existing 60 to 75 through amendments to the Judicature Act. The amendments were passed in parliament yesterday (4).
Justice Minister Athauda Seneviratna told parliament that the reason to move amendments to increase the number of High Court judges is to ease delays in laws and streamline the judicial process.
He noted that the Judicature Act would be made more people friendly by making several new changes.
The Minister also said that laws would be amended shortly to make the necessary provision to file Human Rights cases in the Court of Appeal.
