Venezuela's government and opposition have agreed to work towards reform of the country's top court, appointing a committee to review the selection of candidates for the Supreme Court of Justice.
The agreement marks a step in discussions between the two sides over the composition and selection process for the country's highest judicial body.
A committee to review selection
The newly appointed committee is tasked with reviewing how candidates for the Supreme Court of Justice are selected, an issue that has been a point of contention between the government and opposition.
Reform of the top court has been a recurring topic in talks between Venezuela's political rivals, given the court's role in the country's judicial and political system.
No timeline has been given for when the committee is expected to complete its review or for when any resulting changes to the selection process might take effect.
The move to jointly appoint a review committee suggests at least a degree of cooperation between the government and opposition on this specific issue, even as broader political tensions between the two sides persist.
