COURTS ACT 2015

The legislation directly responded to systemic inefficiencies within the Irish judicial system, aiming to streamline court procedures and enhance the functionality of court operations. Key highlights include the restructuring of judicial appointments, facilitating greater transparency in the selection and promotion of judges. It also addressed cases of judicial misconduct, establishing stricter disciplinary measures. These reforms collectively aimed to bolster public confidence in judicial impartiality and efficiency, further harmonising Ireland's legal framework with European standards. The Act's passage through the Oireachtas underscored a broader commitment to modernising the nation's legal infrastructure.
