Civil
Justice ReformThe justice system must evolve in order to remain relevant
and responsive to the needs of society. Many reports on the civil justice system
from around the world have explored this issue. They have identified cost,
delay and complexity as serious barriers to access to civil justice and have offered
some common solutions. They include an increased reliance on collaborative dispute
resolution as an alternative to court and greater judicial control of cases. The
Ministry of Attorney General has been exploring, promoting and implementing civil
justice reform for many years. Working with the courts, lawyers and others, the
justice system has undergone many changes. Since 2002, however, efforts to make
more fundamental changes have intensified. For more information on civil
