Justice ministry to switch to e-mode
The Ministry of Justice is planning to computerise 50 per cent of its services and speed up Emiratisation of the judiciary this year.
This was stated by Dr Ali Al Hawsany, Acting Undersecretary of the ministry, at a Press conference on Tuesday.
The ministry was also giving importance to raising the awareness about the judicial processes in the country among the residents and provide all infrastructure to the courts in the Northern Emirates this year.
Dr Al Hawsany said the ministry’s objectives for 2008 included integration of the legal and judicial processes in the UAE as well as development of alternative systems to settle disputes.
The other focus areas of the ministry this year would be Emiratisation of jobs in the judiciary, development of human resources and development of labour relations.
The ministry was working to create an effective institutional system that could contribute to achieving the targets of the ministry, including speeding up of all judicial procedures, Dr Al Hawsany said.
He stressed that the ministry was keen on cooperating with strategic partners, including international bodies, to achieve its targets.
Modernisation of its services was one of the main targets this year, Dr Al Hawsany said, and added a study was being conducted among different categories of users of these services. A new system would be set up to receive complaints and proposals to help assess the performance of existing services.
The modernisation drive would include simplifying procedures, conducting a study of the texts of judicial proceedings to evolve a mechanism for ensure speedy adjudication of disputes, simplifying the procedures for implementing the judgements and translation of laws into English.
The shift to the electronic process was being planned to ensure accuracy and speed of rendering services as well as protecting the rights of litigants more effectively, Al Hawsany said. The ministry would launch a web site which would feature its services and the laws of the country. Source
