ROME (ITALPRESS) – “Reduction in the length of civil and criminal trials, digitization of more than 5 million court files, more than 7,000 hires in the prison police and 250 million euros for prison construction, 7 bilateral treaties on international judicial cooperation and more funds for the reimbursement of legal fees in favor of defendants acquitted by a final full verdict. These are just some of the measures approved and initiated by the Meloni executive in two years of government in the field of justice reform.” Thus FdI deputy Carolina Varchi, group leader in the House Justice Committee. “We have worked with determination to reduce justice times and provide more modern tools, bringing our justice system closer to European standards and strengthening citizens’ trust in institutions,” she added. “The Meloni government has kept its word: a more efficient justice system with more resources. We have put an end to the abuse of office that limited the activities of local administrators, in order to restore momentum to administrative action and the economy of the territories and, thanks to the attention of Minister Nordio, it has been possible to initiate the reform on the separation of careers, so as to finally differentiate the path of those who are called to judge citizens from those in charge of bringing charges and thus make the relationship between defense and prosecution more balanced during the trial. In prisons, which have been left to neglect for too long, we have ensured the safety of the officers and staff who work hard every day, including bringing the staffing of educators to full strength. With the establishment of an operational intervention group against riots and the introduction of the crime of rioting in penitentiary institutions, we have put an end to a legislative vacuum that was endangering order and security within prison facilities,” Varchi concluded.(ITALPRESS).-Photo: Varchi press office-
