9. WORKING METHOD

Steering committee: working group at a distance for the necessary back-up (co-ordinating/umbrella group) for the complete PHARE programme on Justice and Home Affairs

Per main item an expert group, composed of national people involved and foreign experts, are wanted and necessary. This group will function as an advisory group.

Per specific project working groups that do the actual work, are advised by the general expert group and covered by the support of the steering group.

(Conditions:

• create a working group in between the MJELI and the field where the needs are (cf. already existing working group on computerisation), composed of representatives of all parties involved and perhaps a foreign expert and an EC participant, that will make suggestions, to be approved by the High Judicial Council

• supporting the setting up and starting of the school of judges and regarding the possibilities to expand their task to the public prosecutors offices and the supporting staff of the judiciary

• training should be composed of both initial and permanent training

• strengthening communication with the MJELI, to improve the mutual trust

• communication with all magistrates and all others involved (general newsletter, f.e. making known the Judicial System Act)

• when training could be provided by the school of judged for all target groups, each target group should, with the help of a foreign counterpart, create their own curriculum, that can be carried out again with the help of foreign counterparts, in the form of a train the trainers model)
