summary <div>A legislative

summary is currently being prepared for this bill by the Parliamentary Information and Research Service of the Library of Parliament. Meanwhile, the following executive

summary is available.<br/><br/>On December 2021, the Minister of Justice introduced Bill C-9,

An Act to amend the Judges Act in the House of Commons and it was given first reading. <br/><br/>Bill C-9 amends the Judges Act to replace the process through which the conduct of federally appointed judges is reviewed by the Canadian Judicial Council. It establishes a new process for reviewing allegations of misconduct that are not serious enough to warrant a judge’s removal from office and makes changes to the process by which recommendations regarding removal from office can be made to the Minister of Justice. As with the provisions it replaces, this new process also applies to persons, other than judges, who are appointed under

an Act of Parliament to hold office during good behaviour.</div> House of Commons — First reading: Completed (2021-12-16) House of Commons — Second reading: Completed (2022-10-31) House of Commons — Consideration in committee: Completed (2022-12-06) House of Commons — Report stage: Completed (2022-12-09) House of Commons — Third reading: Completed (2022-12-09) Senate — First reading: Completed (2022-12-13) Senate — Second reading: Completed (2023-03-09) Senate — Consideration in committee: Completed (2023-05-18) Senate — Report stage: Completed (2023-05-31) Senate — Third reading: Completed (2023-06-01) LEGISinfo: https://www.parl.ca/legisinfo/en/bill/44-1/c-9
