Summary:

Communication published by the European Commission in March 2013, featuring the first annual EU Justice Scoreboard.

Further information:

The objective of the EU Justice Scoreboard is to assist the EU and the Member States to achieve more effective justice by providing objective, reliable and comparable data on the functioning of the justice systems of all Member States. Quality, independence and efficiency are the key components of an 'effective justice system'. Providing information on these components in all Member States contributes to identifying potential shortcomings and good examples and supports the development of justice policies at national and at EU level.

The first edition of the EU Justice Scoreboard was adopted by the European Commission on 27 March 2013.
