Justice for Business Project

The objective of the Justice for Business Project is to improve the business regulatory procedures and justice service standards for businesses and citizens. The project has two components. Component one is a results-based component that supports implementation of interventions which are expected to reduce the administrative burden for businesses in their interaction with government. Component two combines results-based financing to support improvements in the delivery of justice services with emphasis on those provided to businesses and direct investment supporting the rehabilitation and renovation of selected court facilities for better onsite court performance. Additionally, support will be provided to project management and technical assistance for the implementation of the results-based financing interventions. The World Bank loan will finance both the results-based interventions as well as the direct investments. The loan proceeds will also finance training and other TA directly related to the infrastructure component. The GoC will finance required technical assistance activities to support achieving the DLIs, allocating funding for technical assistance activities from its own budget or through other parallel programs. The Bank task team will monitor implementation of such technical assistance activities as part of the project implementation support.
