Project GovernanceProject Governance
The implementation will be through multi-sectoral Implementation Committee representing all role players
At National Office the Project is coordinated by the National Steering Committee which focuses on the following:
- provide necessary policy guidelines to guiding the implementation process
- coordinate and integrate programmes of the different depts involved in the implementation process
- manage interdependencies and communicate clear messages
- provide/mobilise necessary resources required for effective implementation
At Provincial level Provincial Coordinating Committees chaired by the Regional Heads have been established. The Committees are responsible for:
- oversee the implementation
- manage the interdependencies
- communicate joint and clear messages to stakeholders and consumers

Benefits and RisksBenefits and Risks
The anticipated risks
- fear for change & insistence to cling to the current
- self interest may overide interest of justice & society
- some may not notice benefit for career progression
- difference in ideologies between different institutions/structures
advantages of the model include:
The model locates service delivery close to the end customers of justice There are risks associated with the model which require careful management during the implementation phase:
There could be significant infrastructural requirements at court-level where support services will be located (particularly at Hub Court level). The available physical office space at court level will need to be assessed and compared with the facilities required.
Significant change management is required, especially at the court level, which will be impacted most
