In exercising judicial authority, the courts and tribunals shall be guided by the following principles-
justice shall be done to all, irrespective of status;
justice shall not be delayed;
alternative forms of dispute resolution including reconciliation, mediation, arbitration and traditional dispute resolution mechanisms shall be promoted, subject to clause(3)
justice shall be administered without undue regard to procedural technicalities; and
the purpose and principles of this Constitution shall be protected and promoted.
Traditional dispute resolution mechanisms shall not be used in a way that-
contravenes the Bill of Rights;
is repugnant to justice and morality or results in outcomes that are repugnant to justice or morality; or
is inconsistent with this Constitution or any written law.
The Judiciary has developed a Judiciary Transformation Framework that has placed it on the path of institutional transformation. The Framework is currently at the validation stage.
