The Head of State, who was speaking about the delay in appointing External Bodies to Parliament, including the CSMJ, asked that conduct be avoided that weaken those values and principles or weaken the institutions, recalling that Cape Verde needs more strong, capable of ensuring the defense and preservation of its essential values.
“The inaction in the appointment of the other members of the Council, not being an impediment to the functioning of this body, may constrain the full and regular fulfillment of the functions entrusted to it, hinder its inclusion in the architecture of the social and political environment in which it is integrated and will represent , always, the lack of respect for their organizational and action autonomy”, he said.
José Maria Neves, on the other hand, considered it important that there be concrete and tangible improvements in the justice system, for a better image before citizens and companies and better functioning of the sector. All with a view to the desired justice, “fair, effective, swift, complete and transparent”.
To the sworn in, the Head of State wished the greatest successes in the position, whose nomination deserved the unanimity of his peers, guaranteeing that he will have a PR attentive to the justice sector and the judiciary and available to continue to participate in the construction of the sector.
