This study examines and evaluates
developments in the Justice Law and Order Sector (JLOS)
institutions, noting both the achievements and continuing
challenges of reform under first phase Sector Investment
Plan (SIP I) and SIP II. It pays particular attention to the
SIP guidelines and objectives and to the outstanding
challenges described in various reviews of the JLOS
institutions, more specifically: (a) the commercial court;
(b) the impact of the establishment of the centre for
arbitration and dispute resolution on case backlogs; (c) the
adequacy of legal education to meet the needs of the sector
in view of recent reforms, and (d) the provision of legal
aid services to the poor to increase their access to
justice. The study also touches on the challenges identified
by the JLOS Medium Term Evaluation (MTE), which warranted
detailed study and which informed the development of SIP II.
They include law reform, legal education, and access to
justice for the poor and particularly in the conflicted
areas of Uganda.
