Restrictions on Discussion
No discussion shall take place in Parliament on the conduct of judges in the discharge of their duties, except on a motion for impeachment. Sub judice matters cannot be discussed.
Two things you CANNOT debate in Parliament: (1) how judges are doing their job (unless impeaching them), and (2) cases currently before the courts (sub judice). This protects judicial independence — politicians can\'t use Parliament\'s platform to pressure judges on pending cases or publicly attack judges for unfavorable rulings.
