For the selection of judges, the Prince Regnant and the Diet refer to a joint commission (Judges’ Selection Board) composed of 1 member from each parliamentary group, the Minister of Justice and Infrastructure, and representatives sent by the Prince equal in number to those sent by the Parliament. The Judges’ Selection Board is chaired by the Prince, who has a casting vote. The Board’s deliberations are confidential. The final decision of candidates rests with the Diet which can reject the Board’s proposal.
