Justice requires a holistic approach, says A. Mavroyiannis "It is a first step in the right direction", says on passing law

Justice needs a holistic approach to further strengthen the rule of law, protecting fundamental human rights, putting in place the necessary safeguards to curb corruption, while closing legal windows where and when they exist, The candidate for the Presidency of the Republic, Andreas Mavroyiannis, states that it is considered necessary to channel more resources towards the pursued goal of modernization, through the adoption of technological tools, in order to create the necessary structures for digital justice, which will bring about faster judicial procedures.

In a statement, on the occasion of the passing of the Bill for the reform of the highest level of Justice during yesterday's plenary session of the Parliament, Mavroyianis said that "it is a first step in the right direction", however, he notes that "at the same time, there remain unresolved issues for years, such as the excessive delay observed mainly in the courts of first instance".

According to Andreas Mavroyiannis, "the whole framework of adversarial dispute resolution needs to be modernised and strengthened", adding that "the aim is to establish a legal system that will deliver impartial and effective justice, which will inspire credibility in society and among citizens".
