As work begins to digitise the nation’s judicial system, Chief Justice Bryan Sykes is hoping that the project will not be an example of implemented information and communication technology systems that do not work. 

The Integrated Electronic Case Management System is being implemented in partnership with the Rwanda Corporation Initiative with support from Global Affairs Canada and the United Nations Development Programme in Jamaica.

The Ministry of Justice and Constitutional Affairs is hosting a 12-member delegation from the Republic of Rwanda who are in Jamaica to hold discussions on the system’s implementation.

Speaking during a meeting at the ministry yesterday, Chief Justice Sykes embraced the partnership but cautioned that the true measure of its success is in the experience of the Jamaican people. 

He said it is important that this ICT system delivers.
