The Minister of Justice, Joana Rosa, chaired, on Tuesday, the meeting that marks the start of the Special Project on Justice Information System (SIJ) and which was also the first of the Monitoring Committee for the Implementation of the project, held at the premises of the Operational Nucleus of the Information Society (NOSi).

On the sidelines of this first meeting, the Minister, accompanied by a delegation from her Ministry, made a guided tour of the infrastructures of the Data Center in the State of Cape Verde, during which the Governor expressed her satisfaction with the level of innovation and ambition of the NOSi and expressed total openness to reinforce the fruitful cooperation, aiming at the operationalization of the SIJ.

Joana Rosa reaffirmed that, with the introduction of the new Justice Information System, procedural delays will be reduced, in addition to other gains that the sector may see in the near future. “Today we will mark the start of the Justice Information System Project, which aims to make the SIJ operational and will be a gain for the national justice sector,” she said.

Likewise, he recalled that NOSi is working on the SIJ Platform as a service provider to guarantee its full independence, hence the intention is to amend the SIJ Law and create a Public Institute to manage it.

He concluded by emphasizing the commitment of the Government of Cape Verde to create the necessary conditions for the judicial system to be effective, preventive, swift, accessible, impartial and transparent.
