Serving the Community through the administration of justice

The Criminal Justice Review report set a clear agenda for those involved in the administration of justice in relation to improved information about the criminal justice system and community outreach. The Review report stated:

'Securing a clear understanding on the part of the community about the way in which criminal justice operates and is structured is an essential component of a strategy of enhancing public confidence in the system and is an important contribution to transparency and accountability.'

The Northern Ireland Court Service is committed to community outreach. Our Outreach Strategy can be found here.
