When court decisions are not enforced, the authority and credibility of the judicial system can be undermined, and citizens can lose confidence in the justice system. Strengthening the enforcement of judicial decisions is therefore essential to ensuring justice is delivered and public confidence in the legal system.

 

To further enhance the efficiency of the Palestinian judicial system, EUPOLCOPPS conducted a second workshop on challenges in the enforcement of judicial decisions, on 26 January in Nablus. Key stakeholders such as the Palestinian Civil Police (PCP), the Palestinian Prosecutor’s Office, the Courts and the Ministry of Justice attended the workshop.

 

The discussions focused on ongoing challenges for effective enforcement of judicial decisions. Among factors contributing to the current challenges, the participants identified restriction of movements in the West Bank, lack of effective digital linkage, limited financial and human resourcesand weak inter-institutional coordination

 

This workshop was part of a series held across Palestinian districts and aimed to bring together key judicial actors including representatives from the Attorney General’s Office and the High Judicial Council, for open and constructive dialogue. The outcome of this second workshop was to strengthen cooperation between stakeholders and to address obstacles and gaps faced when enforcing judicial decisions.
