Memorandum of Understanding with Papua New Guinea

The Judicial Commission recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Papua New Guinea to provide an integrated criminal case system database (ICCSD) for the PNG Law and Justice Sector. This follows our successful development of a sentencing  database for PNG which is now fully operational.  The ICCSD will be able to track and monitor cases from the point of being charged by the police to the point of dispensation of penalty for all types of criminal cases including appeals. All vital information will be shared among law and justice agencies and be readily accessible through this single source allowing for significant improvement in data quality, currency of information and the way criminal cases are managed.
