"The Court of Justice of the European Union has requested the amendment of its Statute because it believes that urgent restructuring is necessary in order to handle its extremely large workload and to reduce the time taken to judge cases. The Court of Justice is aware that a significant number of cases currently before the General Court require an urgent solution. Like the judicial reform recently carried out in Hungary, the aim of the draft amendment requested by the Court of Justice is to increase the efficiency of the Court of Justice and to reduce the duration of proceedings. It is not sufficient to stem the tide of new cases; it is also necessary to take strong steps to process the backlog of cases in progress. According to the Court of Justice, the necessary efficiency and consistency of the Court of Justice's administration of justice can only be ensured by increasing the number of judges as a matter of urgency. There is general agreement among the institutions of the EU regarding the necessity of these amendments. However, while there is agreement in theory about increasing the number of members of the General Court, the method of appointing them has not yet been determined. Given that the Council was unable to reach political agreement concerning the distribution of the 12 new judge positions to be created among the Member States, the relevant section was omitted from the regulation, enabling the remaining points of the reform to be adopted and for the organisational changes to come into effect prior to the partial restructuring in autumn."@en1
