Citizens should be made aware of their fundamental rights and be taught on how to access the services of government institutions involved in justice delivery when their rights are violated or when the enforcement of these rights are sought. This is the essence of democracy and good governance - when people are empowered to exercise their rights and attain the progressive fulfilment of their needs.
a) Make full use of the services of government lawyers by deputizing them. Lawyers employed in various government agencies and instrumentalities will be imbued with the necessary authority to defend public interests in congruence with the functions of the OSG;
b) Provide tax credits for lawyers representing IPs and other vulnerable groups. Tax incentives will be provided for lawyers representing society's vulnerable groups to encourage them to render adequate legal assistance and at the same time, promote equal access in the justice system;
c) Strengthen the Katarungang Pambarangay Law to resolve cases at the local level. The strengthening of the Katarungang Pambarangay Law will result in the speedy resolution of cases at the local level without going through the rigors of court processes. This will substantially improve the delivery of justice and facilitate the declogging of court dockets; and
d) Conduct training among judges, court personnel, prosecutors, public defenders and other pillars of the justice system in handling gender-sensitive cases, especially those involving violence against women and children (VAWC).
