be appointed by the Governor in Council by Gazette notice—

in the case of the holder of judicial office—for the term fixed by the Governor in Council; and

in any other case—for a term of not more than 3 years fixed by the Governor in Council.

A member holds office on the terms not provided for by this Act as are determined by the Governor in Council.
