THE Judicial Services Bill, which seeks to remove magistrates and their supporting staff from the authority of the Public Service Commission and place them under the commission that certifies judges, yesterday sailed through the House of Assembly with amendments.

The proposed legislation now awaits transmission to the Senate for consideration.

Under the Bill, magistrates and their supporting staff will be removed from the Public Service Commission to the Judicial Service Commission.

The commission is constituted in terms of the Constitution of Zimbabwe.
