Recent developments in the judicial field

A medium-term programme (5 years) for the development of the judicial system is under way. With a budget of 2 million euros, it covers mainly technical aspects: logistical support for courts, widespread use of the internet, online publication of court decisions, digital recording of hearings, introduction of telecommunication links between criminal courts and prisons so that prisoners do not have to be moved.
