It's a complicated matter that I'm not sure I can take a firm stance either way on without thinking it over a bit more. The CoI problems are of course very obvious, and for a position as political as the Prime Minister is there's bit of a CoI to some extent on every case.

On the other hand though, I can speak firsthand to the troubles of appointing new Judicial members and the rather limited pool of qualified options available. I spent a whole term trying to make changes to the pool with no success, and from my knowledge it hasn't been much better since.

I'm not without my own potential CoIs though, given my position on the Legislator Committee. If elected I intend to follow the precedent of Roavin and resign from the LegComm. I would say that in general it is better to err on the side of caution on matters of possible CoIs, regardless of what they may be or their technical legality.
