The Supreme Court is working on “concrete steps” to address alleged ethics issues at the nation’s highest court following multiple reports alleging shortcomings, Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh has said.

Justice Kavanaugh made the comments at a judicial conference in Ohio on Sept. 7 where he appeared before judges and lawyers and was questioned by Judge Stephanie Dawkins Davis of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit about “perceived ethics issues” at the high court, The Washington Post reported.
