KUWAIT: The Ministry of Justice announced on Monday the launch of a new service allowing users to obtain the full text of court rulings through the unified government e-services application, Sahel, as part of ongoing efforts to enhance digital services and simplify procedures for litigants. In a press statement, the ministry said individuals can now directly access the complete text of court rulings via the Sahel application without the need to visit court premises, enabling them to submit the documents to government bodies and other entities that require official rulings.
The ministry stressed its commitment to saving time and effort for litigants by eliminating in-person visits, expediting transactions and providing services that ease procedures and overcome potential obstacles. It added that on November 18, the Ministry of Justice had launched two additional services through the Sahel app — Family Insurance Fund certificates and Court of Cassation rulings — as part of its broader digital transformation drive aimed at facilitating individual transactions.
Institutional memory system
In another development, the Ministry of Information on Monday announced the launch of its electronic institutional memory system, designed to preserve institutional knowledge, document experiences and expertise, enhance work efficiency, and support the sustainability of institutional performance, contributing to the development of the ministry’s operational framework.
In a press statement, the ministry said the system was launched under the directives of Minister of Information and Culture and Minister of State for Youth Affairs Abdulrahman Al-Mutairi, as part of the ministry’s strategy to achieve digital transformation, implement corporate governance principles, enhance transparency, standardize procedures and raise institutional efficiency. The ministry explained that the institutional memory system is an integrated electronic knowledge platform that goes beyond traditional archiving by organizing manuals, procedures, plans, visions and achievements. The platform helps avoid repeated errors, build upon successful practices, transform individual experiences into sustainable institutional knowledge, and support decision-making based on clear and accessible information.
Since its inception in August, the system has included 132 topics across eight main categories, covering procedural manuals, program visions, strategic plans, executive, administrative, financial, and legal affairs, regulations and systems, as well as media events and emergency protocols. The ministry confirmed that efforts are ongoing to periodically update the system, integrate all ministry sectors, and activate smart search features and dashboards to enhance institutional performance, support work development and meet the requirements of the next phase of digital transformation. — KUNA
