On 13 August 2020 was carried out the second meeting of the Steering Group of the project "Support for further strengthening the efficiency and quality of the judiciary in the Republic of Moldova", which is part of the Partnership of the Council of Europe and the European Union for Good Governance in the Eastern Partnership Countries 2019-2021 (PGG II).

The meeting gathered representatives of the beneficiary and main partners and was dedicated to reporting on the progress in the implementation of the objectives related to improved efficiency and quality of courts and enforcement of court decisions. Updating the work plan was required mainly due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Amendments were proposed only to the timeline of the implementation of some activities without affecting their substance or number. The actual or potential risks to the due course of the project’s implementation and the corresponding mitigation measures were also discussed and the updated work plan for the period of August-December 2020 was approved.

The activity was part of the cooperation project “Support to further strengthening the efficiency and quality of the judicial system in the Republic of Moldova”, implemented in the framework of the European Union/Council of Europe Partnership for Good Governance II, co-funded by the European Union and the Council of Europe.
