QUESTION 1
(a)
1. Revision of the Rules of Court:
o Regular updates and changes to the rules of court help keep the legal system
efficient, relevant, and adaptable to new societal and legal developments. By
continually revising these rules, the court system can address issues such as
delays, complexity, and access to justice.
2. Increasing the Jurisdictional Limits of Lower Courts:
o Expanding the jurisdiction of lower courts enables more people to access the
legal system at a lower cost. For example, increasing the monetary limits for
cases heard in magistrates' courts can prevent the need for people to take
their cases to the more expensive High Court, thus promoting greater access
to justice.
