Abstract

The project relates to technical assistance to be provided by IRSIG-CNR on efficiency and quality of justice in the Slovak Republic, based on the tools and methodology settled by the European Commission for the Efficiency of Justice Commission (CEPEJ), in the framework of the cooperation project entitled 'Stregthening the efficiency and quality of the Slovak judicial system', promoted by the Council of Europe (COE). This cooperation project aims at strengthening the efficiency and quality of the Slovak judicial system, through an overall assessment of the judicial system and application of CEPEJ tools and methodology. The project will formulate recommendations and advise on possible reforms in the justice sector.
