Courts Service Courts Service Act 1998: Courts Service established November 1999 Courts Service mission is: “To manage the courts, support the judiciary and provide a high- quality and professional service to all users of the courts” Courts Service functions are: to manage the courts to provide support services for the judges to provide information on the courts system to the public to provide, manage and maintain court buildings to provide facilities for users of the courts We want our court buildings to support the administration of justice, to allow us to provide quality services to court users and to present an appropriate image of the courts to the public
Courts Service Building Programme Since 1999 significant investment has been made in providing new and refurbished court facilities: one of the most recent was Kilkenny These have been procured both through traditional capital procurement and by way of Public Private Partnership in the case of the Criminal Courts of Justice in Dublin A major rationalisation of smaller venues has also taken place The availability of appropriate facilities for all court users with separate circulation routes is an important feature of courthouse design and operation The designs produced by the Office of Public Works for the 7 projects address these requirements In the 7 locations covered by the Courts Bundle, the existing court facilities are poor and in need of significant improvement, in both capacity and in the availability and standard of facilities
