This Policy Report will shed light on the impact of salaries on judicial performance/efficiency in the context of Kosovo. More precisely, the Report will examine the effectiveness of the judiciary, and will assess whether low salaries were/are one of the key impediments hindering a stronger, transparent and effective judicial system, and how the increase in salaries affects its performance/efficiency. Lastly, the Report will provide suitable recommendations centred on guiding the judiciary towards a more developed salary system that promotes its functional and professional growth, and which produces more efficient and tangible results in the entire rule-of-law sector.
