Plans to expand the court in the future are being discussed in the National Assembly, to possibly seven or nine members.
The office of the Chief Justice and the justices are vacant, with the National Assembly temporarily acting as the court, because the National Assembly and President have not met to appoint the justices to the Supreme Court.
