The impeached judge says he has ‘the expertise, I have been a judge in this country for 29 years so I know the system in and out’.
In February Hlophe was impeached by the assembly for gross misconduct, becoming the first judge to be impeached by parliament. He has a PhD in law.
Shortly after being sworn in last Tuesday, Hlophe indicated he would accept nomination to the JSC if his party wants to deploy him there.
He said there were other committees he was interested in serving in including the justice portfolio committee and others in the justice and security cluster.
Anything before the house for decision is subject to a vote. MPs may object to the names, amend them or reject them.
EFF leader Julius Malema and the DA’s Glynnis Breytenbach, who have previously served on the body, have been nominated by their respective parties, while the ANC has proposed newcomers to the national legislature in Molapi Soviet Lekganyane and Fasiha Hassan.
ActionSA has nominated veteran MP and parliamentary leader Athol Trollip.
To serve in the Magistrates Commission, former communications minister Faith Muthambi has been nominated by the ANC, Adrian Roos by the DA, Sibonelo Nomvalo by the MK party and Omphile Maotwe by the EFF.
