Paragraph 42
 

In this new constitutional context, the current composition of the SBE is problematic. Insofar as the independence of the Council of Judges and Prosecutors can be questioned, so can the independence of the SBE. Indirectly, the Council of Judges and Prosecutors controls the appointments of the SBE’s members.
