| Summary: | The Joint Country Support Strategy for
the Kyrgyz Republic (2007-2010) (JCSS), extended in 2008 to
cover the period 2009-2011, identified the weak and
inefficient Kyrgyz legal and judicial system as contributing
to a poor business environment and weak governance. As a
result, JCSS partners identified 'comprehensive
judicial reform' as a program focus and a goal of the
JCSS which was enlarged to include independence for the
judicial budget. As part of the JCSS, the World Bank program
included the preparation of a 'judicial reform
study'. In order to implement this program, the World
Bank and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation
(SDC) agreed to fund this judicial system diagnostic
conducted by a World Bank diagnostic team complemented by
international experts in specific sectors. The
diagnostic's objective is to provide an analysis of the
institutional and operational issues and obstacles that
constrain the functioning of Kyrgyzstan's legal and
judicial system. The diagnostic provides recommendations for
overcoming key constraints both at the policy and the
implementation levels. |
