The AG and Director of Public Prosecution should be appointed with security of tenure; for example, their appointments could only be or made or terminated by His Majesty on the advice of an independent commission through a transparent, accountable and merit-based process; just like superior court judges.

It is proposed that the Prime Minister plays no role at all in the appointment of judges. The JAC (instead of the Prime Minister) recommends the names to the Conference of Rules (for their views) and thereafter to the Agong. A constitutional amendment is required.
