Negotiations between chavismo and an opposition sector may suspend the ongoing magistrate selection process in the National Assembly.
The proposal aims to renew all TSJ chambers, including the Electoral Chamber, not just fill 24 vacancies.
A new 'parity' Postulation Committee and an 'independent judicial evaluation council' external to the National Assembly are proposed.
The renewal of the TSJ is politically sensitive due to the Electoral Chamber's role.
