under the 2009 Regulations remained relevant after the invalidation of the 2016 Regulations, especially for candidates who had pursued academic progression. iii. The Tribunal held that the nullification of Section 16 and the Second Schedule of the Kenya School of Law Act in Otinga v Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Education & Others [2025] KECA 460 (KLR) applied to all pending matters, including the present appeal. Since Section 16 and the Second Schedule were now void, the appellant’s eligibility had to be considered under Regulation 5(c) of the 2009 Regulations, which she satisfied. iv. The Tribunal quashed the decision of the Kenya School of Law denying the Appellant admission. It declared that the appellant is eligible for admission to the ATP under the 2009 Regulations. In the end, the Tribunal directed KSL to admit the appellant forthwith. Vetting of Electoral Candidates Based on Unratified Policy Documents in Cooperative Societies Jane Wanjiru Mugo v Bingwa Sacco Society Ltd, Cooperative Tribunal Case No. E001 of 2025 Brief facts The claimant applied to contest as a director for the Mutira Electoral Zone in Bingwa Sacco’s elections scheduled for 14th January 2025. Her candidacy was rejected by the Sacco’s nomination committee on the basis that she had been an employee of the Sacco within the last 10 years, allegedly disqualifying her under Clause 9.1(f)(xx) of the Sacco’s Electoral Policy. She challenged the rejection, arguing that the Electoral Policy had no legal effect as it had not been validly adopted or integrated into the Sacco’s by-laws. She further contended that the policy contradicted the provisions of the Cooperative Societies Act, the Cooperative Societies Rules, and Bingwa Sacco’s registered by-laws. Issues 1. Whether the respondent’s electoral policy was valid and binding on members. 2. Whether the claimant was eligible to vie for election as director. 3. Whether the Sacco’s conduct of elections could proceed based on the contested policy. Holding i. The Tribunal found that the electoral policy had not been subjected to member participation or properly ratified in accordance with the procedural requirements for amending by-laws under Section 8 of the Cooperative Societies Act and Rule 8 of the Cooperative Societies Rules. It noted that while the policy was discussed under “matters arising” in a board meeting held on 19th September 2023, there was no evidence of member deliberation or education on the document. The Tribunal proceeded to hold that the electoral policy was effectively an “unknown or alien” document to the Sacco’s membership and could not be used to vet or disqualify candidates. ii. The Tribunal found that the claimant, who had retired in May 2024 and met the eligibility criteria under the Sacco’s registered by- laws, had been unfairly barred from contesting. It rejected the respondent’s submission that the claimant’s employment history disqualified her, reiterating that only duly ratified and communicated rules could lawfully limit candidacy. iii. The Tribunal faulted the respondent for attempting to proceed with elections before resolving the eligibility question, finding this prejudicial and indicative of bad faith. It directed that the elections for Mutira Electoral Zone be held before the society’s AGM, and that the claimant be allowed to contest. v. Alternative Justice System (AJS) Demosprudence Article 159(2)(c) of the Constitution mandates the Judiciary to promote alternative forms of dispute resolution. In line with this directive, the Judiciary has continued to adopt a multi-door approach to dispute resolution, encouraging the use of alternative dispute mechanisms. The Alternative Justice Systems (AJS) Framework Policy is central to this effort, fostering cooperation and harmony between traditional AJS processes and the formal court system. This interaction aims to enhance access to justice for all Kenyans. Pursuant to the multi-door approach to dispute resolution, this section of the chapter tracks the evolving relationship between AJS demosprudence and the formal courts during the reporting period, highlighting emerging patterns in how courts are increasingly adopting decisions made by AJS mechanisms. Use of AJS to Resolve Protracted Leadership Wrangles in a Church Eld. Amos Nyaiga Ogada & 3 Others v Rev. Abraham Mulwa & 2 Others, Court of Appeal, Kisumu Civil Application E006 of 2025 This case involved leadership of the religious leaders of AIC Church in Kisumu that resulted in 12 cases being filed by different parties including land disputes. The matter was at the Court of Appeal level while other matters were pending in different subordinate courts and the High Court. The parties were referred to AJS to be led by the Chair of Council of Elders, Hon Major Seii. During the one-day AJS session, the parties agreed to withdraw all the twelve cases filed in Court (the parties had been in court for ten years) and have all the officials reinstated as they demarcate the boundaries of some of the parcels of land that were disputed. This case brought peace and unity in the church. Whether AJS Panel has the Authority to Order Cancellation of a Validly Issued Title Deed to Land Estate of Kiplagat Sawe (Represented by Stephen Kiplimo Tai) v Chepkwony (Environment & Land Case E048 of 2024) [2025] KEELC 4933 (KLR) (30 June 2025) (Judgment) Brief Facts The plaintiff approached the court asking it to adopt a verdict of an AJS process conducted by the Kiminini Lands Disputes AJS panel in Trans Nzoia County as a judgment of the court. The report of the AJS proceedings attached a title deed and official search certificate dated 13/11/2024. It emerged from the search certificate that land was still held in the name of Elijah Kimutai Chepkwony (deceased). 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8152 8152 The defendant did not participate in the AJS proceedings. However, through a letter to the AJS Panel, the defendant, through her advocates indicated that she is not the legal administrator of the estate of the late Elijah Kimutai Chepkwony, hence lacked legal capacity to participate in the proceedings. Issues 2. Whether a person lacking legal capacity is proper party in an AJS process. 3. Whether an AJS panel has the authority to order the cancellation of a validly issued deed. Holding The defendant, not being the legal administrator of the estate of the late Elijah Kimutai Chepkwony, lacked legal capacity to be sued on behalf of the deceased’s estate. The plaintiff, not being in possession of letters of administration for the estate of the late Kiplagat Sawe, lacked legal capacity to pursue the claim. The Alternative Justice System panel overstepped its mandate to purport to usurp the power of both the Land Registrar and the court to cancel a validly issued title deed on account of fraud, misrepresentation and illegality. The court directed the plaintiff to seek and obtain a Limited Grant to represent the estate of Kiplagat Sawe and also cite Mary Chemngeno Chepkwony to represent the estate of the late Elijah Chepkwony to be in a position to pursue his claim over the suit land.

And to the extent that section 8 of the Fair Administrative Action Act purports to promote this sort discrimination, it is inconsistent with and contrary to the provisions of the Constitution to which reference has been made.” 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE CHAPTER 4: ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE JUDICIARY INTRODUCTION Judges, judicial officers, and judicial staff are held to the highest ethical standards, with a responsibility to ensure justice is delivered fairly, efficiently, and without undue delay. Accountability in the Judiciary extends beyond case resolution to the quality of services, prudent management of resources, and structured mechanisms for receiving and addressing public feedback. The Constitution demands these obligations, particularly Article 10(2)(c), which enshrines good governance, integrity, transparency, and accountability as guiding principles for all State organs and public officers. This chapter highlights the measures undertaken by the Judiciary during the reporting period to strengthen accountability and transparency. It focuses on reforms, policies, institutional mechanisms, disciplinary control processes, performance management, and financial oversight, all aimed at fostering public trust and safeguarding institutional integrity. 4.1. POLICIES, PROGRAMMES, AND INITIATIVES In an effort to reinforce institutional integrity and enhance public confidence, the Judiciary adopted a range of targeted interventions. These included: 1.1.1. Policy Frameworks The Judiciary adopted a number of policy instruments to promote integrity and accountability. In 2021, the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) approved the Sexual Harassment, Gender Mainstreaming, Affirmative Action, and Diversity Policies, leading to the establishment of the Employee Protection Unit (EPU) and Employee Protection and Inclusivity Committee (EPIC) in July 2024 to provide safe reporting channels and to safeguard members of staff and court users against workplace misconduct Other frameworks include the Incentives and Rewards Policy, which recognises exemplary performance while addressing underperformance through structured interventions such as peer review and performance improvement programmes. In addition, the Judiciary Human Resource Policies and Procedures Manual, which guides discipline and human capital management, was reviewed. At the sectoral level, the Anti-Corruption Strategic Guiding Framework for Kenya’s Justice Sector (ASGF), developed under the National Council on the Administration of Justice (NCAJ), was adopted to provide a justice sector approach to accountability among other objectives. 1.1.2. Institutional Mechanisms The Judiciary has established various public feedback mechanisms that give court users and members of the public a chance to submit complaints, compliments, or concerns, and suggest ways to improve services. To operationalise openness, accountability, and responsiveness to the citizens, the Judiciary has provided for the following mechanisms: The Office of the Judiciary Ombudsman The Office of the Judiciary Ombudsman (OJO) was established under the Office of the Chief Justice in fulfilment of the Commission on Administrative Justice Act which requires each public entity to establish and build the capacity of a complaint-handling system. It is mandated to receive complaints, monitor and evaluate the integrity of staff, monitor complaints on court processes, as well as propose improvements for effective judicial services and ease of access to justice. It thus provides an additional avenue for accountability by addressing public complaints related to service delivery and the conduct of Judicial officers and staff. It also handles internal grievances raised by Judiciary employees, ensuring a comprehensive and impartial complaints resolution framework. During the reporting period, OJO intensified its oversight role through the deployment of spot-checks across court stations. These unannounced, targeted assessments served as a proactive mechanism to evaluate compliance, uphold integrity, and evaluate operational performance across court stations. Employee Protection Unit In 2021, the Judicial Service Commission approved a suite of policies on Sexual Harassment, Gender Mainstreaming, Affirmative Action, and Diversity, designed to foster a safe workplace, promote equality, and eliminate all forms of gender-based discrimination in judicial administration and service delivery. A key recommendation from these policies was the creation of the Employee Protection Unit (EPU) and EPIC. The EPU, established within the Office of the Chief Justice and operationalised in July 2024, was mandated to strengthen reporting mechanisms for victims of sexual harassment in the Judiciary. It provides effective, confidential procedures for handling complaints involving both staff and court users, while promoting proper standards of conduct across all Judiciary workplaces. During the reporting period, the EPU received six matters referred by the Office of the Judiciary Ombudsman. Of these, four were escalated to the JSC for disciplinary hearing, one was closed, and one remains pending. 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8158 8158 Court Integrity Committees To reinforce public trust and respond to concerns about corruption, the Chief Justice established the National Judiciary Integrity Committee that brings together representatives from the Judiciary, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, the Law Society of Kenya, and other regional stakeholders. The Committee is an inclusive approach that ensures credibility, broad oversight, and effective collaboration, mandated to guide and oversee the creation of Integrity Committees at the court station level. In January 2025, during the Judiciary Dialogue Day, Integrity Committees were rolled out in all court stations. These committees provide institutional mechanisms for promoting transparency, accountability, and ethical conduct. Their responsibilities include: a) Appointing and supporting Integrity Assurance Officers (IAOs). b) Implementing Judiciary-wide integrity policies. c) Promoting ethical conduct among judicial officers and staff. d) Monitoring compliance and investigating allegations of misconduct. e) Enforcing accountability and supporting continuous institutional improvement. As part of the Judiciary’s broader accountability and anti-corruption agenda, field-level interventions have demonstrated tangible impact in promoting ethical conduct, enhancing transparency, and safeguarding public trust. Two notable initiatives—at Kitale Court and the Milimani Anti- Corruption Court—serve as exemplary models of localized integrity enforcement. At the Milimani Anti-Corruption Court, a Corruption Risk Assessment and Mitigation Plan (CRAMP) was pioneered to proactively identify corruption risks and apply targeted solutions. At Kitale Court, the Integrity Committee, comprising a Judge, two advocates, and an EACC official, meets regularly. Judiciary Discipline Management Advisory Committee The Judicial Service Commission approved a revised disciplinary process under the Third Schedule of the Judicial Service Act in November 2024. The new framework provides a formal structure for managing disciplinary cases, ensuring fairness, consistency, and adherence to due process. It also seeks to enhance institutional accountability by addressing disciplinary matters with efficiency and transparency. To operationalise the new framework, the Chief Justice appointed the Judiciary Discipline Management Advisory Committee (JDMAC) in April 2025. The Committee is mandated to oversee disciplinary cases involving judicial staff. The Committee evaluates and recommends appropriate disciplinary recourse, monitors the handling of concluded cases, and works to ensure that disciplinary proceedings are finalized within reasonable timelines. 1.1.3. Initiatives for Accountability and Transparency Several initiatives have reinforced public trust and accountability: Judiciary Dialogue Day On January 31, 2025, the Judiciary convened a Dialogue Day across all court stations, reaffirming its commitment to transparency, accountability, and citizen-centered justice. This nationwide initiative provided a structured platform for engagement between judicial officers, stakeholders, and the public, with a focus on service delivery, judicial processes, and collaborative reform. The forum provided feedback and self- evaluation mechanisms to ensure responsiveness to evolving needs and adoption of new technologies. Implementation of EACC System Audit Recommendations To strengthen accountability and curb corruption risks, the Judiciary invited the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission to conduct a systems audit between November 2021 and March 2022. The audit identified gaps in registry operations and project management. In the quest to implement recommendations from the systems audit, the Judiciary has initiated various reforms. Under registry operations, the Judiciary rolled out e-filing nationwide in March 2024, thereby enhancing efficiency and reducing reliance on manual processes. To improve user engagement, an SMS feedback system linked to the Case Tracking System was piloted at the Milimani Commercial Court. Further measures included the digitization of records and disposal of obsolete files in line with statutory requirements, the introduction of staff and visitor identifiers, and the enforcement of human resource, procurement, and ICT policies. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) were also adopted to ensure uniformity in registry operations across all court stations. On governance and anti-corruption, the Judiciary formulated policies aligned to national anti-corruption frameworks and established multiple reporting channels such as hotlines, suggestion boxes, and whistle-blower protection mechanisms. Corruption prevention committees were operationalized at the court level, while corruption indicators were integrated into performance targets, making corruption a standing agenda item in Court Users Committees (CUCs). In the area of customer service and complaints management, several initiatives were introduced to enhance transparency and responsiveness. These included the enhancement of customer care desks, queue management systems, and structured complaints-handling processes. Dedicated officers were designated to handle both physical and electronic filings, while staff were sensitized on customer service and the use of digital tools. To facilitate real- time feedback, QR codes and feedback boxes were deployed, complemented by greater use of the Judiciary’s website and social media platforms while courts maintained up-to-date complaints registers to ensure systematic tracking and resolution of issues raised by court users. Operationalization of the Judiciary Call Centre The Judiciary has conceptualized a Call Centre to enhance accountability, transparency and user-centric service delivery. This initiative represents a strategic shift toward proactive engagement and operational efficiency, offering court users timely and accurate support across key judicial services such as E-filing processes, CTS support, access to virtual court sessions and registry-related guidance. 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE Stakeholder and Media Engagements The judiciary conducted outreach programmes aimed at enhancing public awareness, promoting transparency, and fostering civic responsibility in judicial processes. Public awareness activities were conducted at Kithimani and Garissa Law Courts, where Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) materials were distributed to court users and community members. The Judiciary held an engagement with the Kenya Leadership Integrity Forum (KLIF) where it was considered that a proposal be drafted for the Working Committees of the National Coordinating Committee (NCC) to effectively discharge its mandate. There was a proposal for resource mobilization for implementation of the Kenya Integrity Plan 2023 -2024. The Judiciary also engaged with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime on countering corruption and promoting integrity. The forum identified areas that were to be implemented during the third year of PLEAD II, which included upgrading the Judiciary Complaints Management System and training of liaison persons and Judiciary Integrity Assurance Officers. 1.1.4. Complaints Management and Resolution The Judiciary has deployed a Complaints Management System (JCMS), a digital platform designed to enhance efficiency, transparency, accountability, and accessibility in complaints handling. This internal system enables the Office of the Judiciary Ombudsman to register, track and communicate with complainants on the status of their complaints, reducing delays and minimizing opportunities for complaints to go unattended. Continuous monitoring and system upgrades have improved reliability and responsiveness, with ongoing enhancements addressing technical challenges and user experience. Notably, the introduction of anonymous reporting and whistle-blower mechanisms has strengthened public confidence by guaranteeing confidentiality in sensitive disclosures. Overall, JCMS has contributed to more efficient complaints management, streamlined institutional accountability, and reinforced trust in the Judiciary’s commitment to responsive service delivery. During the FY 2024/25, the Judiciary handled a total of 1,206 complaints, comprising 1,107 new complaints received during the year and 99 carried forward from the previous financial year. This reflects a slight decline compared to the 1,115 complaints received in the previous year. Out of the total complaints, 1,086 were concluded while 120 remained pending at the end of the reporting period. This translates to a resolution rate of 90 per cent, demonstrating strong institutional responsiveness. Nonetheless, the pending caseload underscores the need for continuous monitoring and timely closure of complaints to maintain service efficiency. Gender Dynamics of Complaints Of the total complaints, 928 (84 per cent) were lodged by males, while 179 (16 per cent) were lodged by females. This trend reflects a significant gender disparity in the utilization of the OJO complaints mechanism, underscoring the need for enhanced awareness and targeted outreach to encourage more women to engage with available redress platforms. Modes of Lodging Complaints Complaints were lodged through multiple channels, providing the public with various avenues to engage with the Judiciary. Overall, email (44 per cent) and letters (38 per cent) accounted for the most frequently used channels, underscoring the public’s preference for formal, documentable communication. Walk-ins (11 per cent) reflected the importance of direct interaction, while calls (6 per cent) and social media (1 per cent) remained marginal. The bulk of complaints were on court services (1,036 cases, 93%), followed by complaints regarding Judicial Administration (59 cases, 5%) and Directorates (12 cases, 1%). This concentration highlights that grievances largely arise at the court-user level. An analysis of the mode of complaint preferences by queue category provides deeper insight into complaint mode preferences. Number and mode of lodging complaints Subject of Complaint Mode of Lodging Complaint Overall Email Letter Walk-in Call Social media Courts 461 391 117 58 9 1,036 Directorates 2 9 1 - - 12 Judicial Administration 27 23 5 3 1 59 Overall 490 423 123 61 10 1,107 Overall (%) 44% 38% 11% 6% 1% 100% Complaint Trends Across Court levels Complaints were most concentrated in the Magistrates’ Courts (651 cases), followed by the High Court (278). The Court of Appeal (52), ELC (28), and Tribunals (24) recorded fewer complaint cases, while specialized courts like the Kadhi’s Court (2) and ELRC (1) had minimal complaints. This highlights the Magistrates’ Courts as the primary interface for public interaction. An analysis of complaints by court level reveals unique patterns that reflect the operational realities and user experiences within each tier of the Judiciary: • Court of Appeal The majority of complaints in the Court of Appeal centered around date allocation (34.6%), followed by adjournments (19.2%) and issues related to the exercise of judicial discretion (13.5%). These trends point to user concerns around case scheduling and predictability of hearings. • High Court Complaints were most frequently lodged regarding judicial discretion (28.1%), adjournments and delayed trials (18%), and lost files (15.5%). This highlight both procedural delays and case management challenges at this level. 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8160 8160 • Magistrates’ Courts The Magistracy recorded the highest number of complaints overall, primarily relating to judicial discretion (29.1%), lost files (13.2%), and adjournments (12.3%). Additionally, this level registered notable concerns regarding integrity issues involving magistrates and judicial staff, underscoring the need for strengthened ethical oversight and support. • Kadhis’ Courts and Tribunals These forums received comparatively fewer complaints. In the Kadhis’ Courts, issues were mainly around judicial discretion and typing of proceedings, while in Tribunals, concerns focused on delayed orders and judgment delivery. This disaggregated view of complaints highlights court-specific service gaps, reinforcing the need for tailored interventions to enhance accountability and user satisfaction across all levels of the Judiciary. Category of Complaints and Resolution Rate The majority of complaints related to merits/exercise of judicial discretion (326 cases, 27.0%), adjournments and delayed trials (153 cases, 12.7%), and lost files (144 cases, 11.9%), together accounting for more than half of all complaints. Service-related issues such as delayed orders (63 cases), delayed judgments/rulings (67 cases), and date allocation (57 cases) also featured prominently. Resolution rates of complaints were generally high across most categories, with adjournments (93.7%), abuse of court process (94.3%), and date allocation (94.7%) recording strong performance. Several categories achieved full resolution (100%), including tampered files, referrals to stakeholders, employee negligence, human resource complaints, integrity issues against judges, and lost exhibits. However, challenges remain in more sensitive categories. Integrity of judicial staff (76.7%), intimidation (58.3%), and sexual harassment (75%) recorded comparatively lower resolution rates, highlighting areas that require sustained institutional focus. Overall, the data reflect effective complaint-handling capacity, but point to the need for targeted interventions in addressing integrity-related complaints and interpersonal conduct within the Judiciary. : Category of Complaints and Resolution Rate Nature of Complaint Carried Forward FY23/24 Registered FY24/25 Total Complaints Handled Reso lved Pen ding % Resolution Merits/ Judicial Discretion 22 304 326 302 24 92.60% Adjournments & Delayed Trials 11 142 153 144 9 93.70% Lost Files 14 130 144 130 14 90.30% Delayed Orders 2 61 63 57 6 90.50% Delayed Judgments/Rulings 7 60 67 60 7 89.60% Integrity – Judicial Officers 1 57 58 45 13 77.60% Date Allocation 6 51 57 54 3 94.70% Abuse of Court Process 5 48 53 50 3 94.30% Cash Bail/Deposits/Securities Refund 6 50 56 49 7 87.50% Slow Service 3 45 48 43 5 89.60% Integrity – Judicial Staff 9 51 60 46 14 76.70% Information Requests 0 30 30 26 4 86.70% Typing of Proceedings 2 22 24 21 3 87.50% Tampered Files 2 14 16 16 0 100% Poor Public Relations 1 9 10 9 1 90% Intimidation 1 11 12 7 5 58.30% Referral to Stakeholders 0 6 6 6 0 100% Departmental Service Delivery 1 5 6 5 1 83.30% Employee Negligence 0 3 3 3 0 100% Human Resource 1 2 3 3 0 100% Integrity – Judges 0 2 2 2 0 100% Sexual Harassment 1 3 4 3 1 75% Damaged/Lost Exhibit 0 1 1 1 0 100% Total 99 1,107 1,206 1,08 120 90.00% During the period, a total of 110 integrity-related complaints were recorded, comprising 57 against magistrates, 51 against judicial staff, and 2 against judges. These figures underscore the Judiciary’s continued vulnerability to ethical lapses at different levels. They also highlight the need for ongoing ethics training, stronger oversight mechanisms, and the promotion of a culture of integrity to safeguard the credibility of judicial processes and maintain public confidence. A large proportion of complaints received relate to merit or judicial discretion, which fall outside the mandate of the Office of the Judiciary Ombudsman. Court decisions cannot be subjected to administrative review and may only be challenged through the appellate process. A merit-based complaint arises when a litigant is dissatisfied with a judicial ruling, order, or judgment, often concerning substantive legal or evidentiary issues that are properly addressed through appeal. Judicial discretion refers to the authority of a judicial officer to make decisions within the confines of the law, applying legal standards, precedent, and procedural fairness to the specific circumstances of a case. This discretion is central to judicial independence. Accordingly, the Chief Justice, the Judicial Service Commission, and the OJO cannot review, overturn, or influence judicial decisions without undermining that independence. 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE Emerging Trends a) Tampered files (14 cases) and intimidation (11 cases) raise red flags about the integrity of case records and professional conduct within the Judiciary. These incidents point to the need for enhanced file management systems, surveillance controls, and clear accountability protocols. b) Although sexual harassment (3 cases) and employee negligence (3 cases) accounted for a minimal share of complaints, the judiciary has a zero-tolerance policy on such issues and has established safe reporting channels, staff sensitization, and strict enforcement of disciplinary measures. Sexual Harassment cases are handled through the Employee Protection Unit (EPU). 1.1.5. Employee Values and Conduct Petitions against Judges Under Article 168 of the Constitution, the Judicial Service Commission is empowered and mandated to receive petitions against judges, investigate concerns, and, where necessary, recommend removal from office. In the Financial Year 2024/25, the JSC recorded a significant rise in petitions filed against judges, reflecting increased public awareness of the Commission’s complaints processes and procedures. A total of 143 petitions were received during the period compared to 100 in 2023/24, representing an increase of 43 per cent. These were in addition to 71 that had been carried forward from the previous financial year. The Commission concluded 82 petitions, with 132 pending at the close of the year.

While this is a positive sign of institutional credibility, it also highlights the need to strengthen the Commission’s investigative and adjudicative capacity to manage rising caseloads efficiently and avoid backlog escalation. Further, the inflow is outpacing resolution, which calls for policy measures to streamline petition handling. Disciplinary Cases against Judicial Officers During the period, the Commission handled ten disciplinary cases against Judicial officers. Out of the ten cases, two were concluded, five were admitted for hearing and proceeding before various panels of the Commission while three are in various stages of processing.

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT Since its formal adoption in FY 2015/2016, the Judiciary’s performance management framework has marked a pivotal shift toward enhanced transparency, accountability, and service delivery. Anchored on tools such as Performance Management and Measurement Understandings (PMMUs), the Performance Appraisal System (PAS), annual work plans, and service delivery charters, the system provides a structured approach to planning, monitoring, and evaluating performance across courts, administrative units, and individual employees. 1.2.1. Overall Performance of Courts and Administrative Units In financial year 2023/24, the Judiciary conducted the 9 th cycle of PMMU evaluations, encompassing a total of 337 units across courts and administrative units. These comprised the Supreme Court (one unit), six Court of Appeal stations, 50 High Court stations and divisions, eight ELRC stations, and 35 ELC stations. The largest share of assessments was in the Magistrates’ Courts, which accounted for 136 units, followed by 42 Kadhis’ Courts and 24 Small Claims Courts. The evaluation further extended to 14 tribunals, seven registrars’ offices, 11 directorates, and three additional administrative units, underscoring the Judiciary’s commitment to comprehensive performance monitoring at all levels. The performance evaluation is guided by a structured grading scale that reflects the extent to which the unit achieves set targets using the scale below: Level of Set Targets Met Score Exceeding set targets Above 120% Outstanding 101–119% Excellent Meeting all set targets 100% Very Good Meeting Most set targets 75–99% Good Meeting some set targets 50–74% Fair Below 50% Poor This scale provides a clear benchmark for assessing performance, distinguishing exceptional achievements while identifying areas that require improvement. In the FY 2023/24 PMMU assessments, the Judiciary recorded an overall performance score of 95.29% out of a possible 120%, a slight decline from 97.67% in the previous year. Notably, no implementing unit was rated as Outstanding, Excellent, or Poor. Instead, the majority of units fell within the mid-performance bands: 120 units attained a “Very Good” grade, 199 were rated “Good,” and 18 were assessed as “Fair.” The detailed distribution of performance outcomes is presented in Table 4.3. Distribution of PMMU Performance Ratings by Implementing Units, FY 2022/23 Implementing Units Outstanding Excellent Very Good Good Fair Poor Total Supreme Court 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 Court of Appeal 0 0 2 4 0 0 6 High Court 0 0 25 21 4 0 50 ELRC 0 0 6 2 0 0 8 ELC 0 0 11 23 1 0 35 Magistrates’ Courts 0 0 24 109 3 0 136 Small Claims Court 0 0 0 16 8 0 24 Kadhis’ Courts 0 0 33 8 1 0 42 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE Implementing Units Outstanding Excellent Very Good Good Fair Poor Total Tribunals 0 0 4 9 1 0 14 Registrars 0 0 7 0 0 0 7 Directorates 0 0 5 6 0 0 11 Other Implementing Units 0 0 3 0 0 0 3 Total 0 0 120 199 18 0 337 1.2.2. Performance of Judicial Staff Performance targets are cascaded to individual staff through the Performance Appraisal System (PAS). As the Judiciary continues to pursue greater efficiency, transparency, and accountability, evolving job roles necessitate a review of the PAS tool to ensure it reflects current performance expectations, streamlines appraisals, and supports data- driven decision-making. The revised tool was approved by the JSC in August 2024 and uploaded into the Jumuika ERP system for implementation. Through the ERP-enabled PAS, 5,612 staff (96.4% of 5,821) set individual performance targets, while 209 staff (3.6%) did not, mainly due to leave of absence or ongoing disciplinary processes. The performance of 5,876 staff was reviewed. Of these, 5,570 staff (95%) were appraised, while 306 staff (5%) were not appraised due to retirement, resignation, dismissal, leave of absence, or disciplinary action. This marked an improvement in compliance, rising from 92% in FY 2022/23 to 95% in FY 2023/24. 1.3. FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY To uphold transparency, integrity, and prudent use of public resources, the Judiciary has instituted robust financial compliance and reporting mechanisms. These include regular financial reporting, internal and external audits, and proactive risk management practices. Collectively, they strengthen institutional accountability, safeguard public funds, and ensure operations align with legal and ethical standards. 1.3.1. Internal Audit and Risk Management The Judiciary, through the Audit and Risk Management Directorate, strengthened institutional accountability by undertaking a wide scope of internal audit assignments. These audits assured the proper management of public resources, compliance with laws and regulations, and the integrity of financial and operational systems. Key Audit Activities The Judiciary conducted audits in critical areas, including financial statements (expenditure, revenue, deposits, mortgage and car loan schemes), payroll, supply chain, budget execution, revenue management, imprests management, leases, and ICT systems such as the Jumuika ERP. The MADIP Programme and deposit management processes were also reviewed. In line with enhancing accountability across the country, internal audits were extended to 22 court stations and six tribunals listed below. Nakuru Law Courts Kisumu Law Courts Kajiado Law Courts Mutomo Law Courts Kabarnet Law Courts Small Claims Courts – Milimani Ukwala Law Courts Rongo Law Courts Moyale Law Courts Garissa Law Courts Lodwar Law Courts Makindu law courts Marsabit Law Courts Bomet Law Courts Tononoka children's court Siakago Law Courts Nkubu Law Courts Embu Law Courts City court Kadhi's Court-Upper Hill 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8164 8164 Garbatula Kadhis Court Milimani Children’s Court Rent Restriction Tribunal Cooperative Tribunal HIV and AIDS Tribunal Tax Appeals Tribunal Capital Markets Tribunal Business Premises Rent Tribunals In addition, 30 prior internal audit reports were followed up on to assess the status of implementation of recommendations. The Directorate also monitored the implementation of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) Report for FY 2021/2022, ensuring oversight findings were addressed. Risk-Based Audit Planning A three-year Internal Audit Strategy (2025/2026 – 2027/2028) was developed based on comprehensive risk assessments. This informed the Annual Internal Audit Work Plan for 2025/2026, which prioritises high-risk areas in line with the Judiciary’s governance and accountability framework. Contribution to Accountability Internal audits highlighted key governance gaps and made actionable recommendations to improve registry operations, revenue and deposits management, supply chain practices, asset management, expenditure control, and ICT systems integration. Emphasis was placed on: • Timely reconciliation of revenue and deposits. • Automation of registry processes such as securities and exhibits. • Stronger fraud prevention, investigation, and recovery measures. • Full compliance with procurement and asset management regulations. • Settlement of pending bills and improved bank reconciliations. • Integration and strengthening of financial and case management systems. Advisory and Governance Support Beyond audits, the institution provided secretarial services to the Audit, Governance, and Risk Management Committee of the JSC, supporting oversight and decision-making on risk and governance matters. Through these activities, the Internal Audit function continues to serve as a cornerstone of accountability within the Judiciary by promoting prudent use of resources, safeguarding assets, and ensuring transparency. Its oversight role enhances public trust in the Judiciary’s administration of justice while reinforcing the principle that accountability is central to good governance. 1.3.2. External Audit As required by law, the Judiciary submits its annual financial statements to the Auditor General for review. These include the Expenditure Statements, Deposit Accountability Statements, Receiver of Revenue Statements, and Mortgage and Car Loan Scheme Statements. The Auditor General’s reports provided an independent assessment of the Judiciary’s financial stewardship. The Judiciary's Financial statements for FY2023/2024 received a qualified opinion while the financial statements for FY2024/2025 were under audit by the time the report was published. The findings of the Auditor General were reported to the National Assembly through the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and made available to the public, offering transparency and a basis for holding the Judiciary accountable. The audits thus serve as a key tool for ensuring that public funds are used for the intended purposes. 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE CHAPTER 5 - HUMAN CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AND DEVELOPMENT INTRODUCTION The Judiciary’s commitment to building a skilled, inclusive, and resilient workforce is reflected in its human capital management and development initiatives undertaken during the 2024/25 financial year. These initiatives encompassed staffing, promotion, talent management, performance management, policy enhancement, training, professional development, employee well-being, and infrastructure improvements, each contributing to the institution’s mandate. 4.1. EMPLOYEE ESTABLISHMENT 4.1.1. Talent Growth The Judiciary implemented targeted strategies to recruit, develop and retain talent, ensuring a competent and motivated workforce capable of meeting evolving judicial demands. A total of 25 recruitments and appointments were made across various cadres, as detailed in Table 5.1.1. The Assistant Deputy Registrar cadre recorded the highest number of appointments at 19, while the remaining cadres each had a single appointment. Of the 25 appointees, 15 were female and 10 male, with 23 of the appointments being drawn from serving staff.

The data reveals a consistent male majority across all categories, though the gender gap varies by court. Judges Distribution by Gender The Judiciary had a total of 202 judges, comprising 115 men (56.9 per cent) and 87 women (43.1 per cent). The High Court, the largest with 95 judges, reflected near gender parity with 50 men (52.6 per cent) and 45 women (47.4 per cent). The Supreme Court had seven judges, with four men (57.1 per cent) and three women (42.9 per cent). In the specialized courts, the ELRC recorded 13 men (61.9 per cent) and 8 women (38.1 per cent) while the ELC had 29 men (56.9 per cent) and 22 women (43.1 per cent. The Court of Appeal presented the widest gender gap, with 19 men (67.9 per cent) compared to 9 women (32.1 per cent). Gender Distribution of Judges by Court level Judges Distribution by Age The age profile of judges shows a concentration in the upper age brackets, with the majority aged between 56–60 years (34.2 per cent) and 61–65 years (22.8 per cent). Judges aged 51– 55 years accounted for 20.8 per cent, while those aged 46– 50 years made up 8.4 per cent. The youngest cohort, aged 41–45 years, constituted 5.0 per cent, whereas judges above 65 years represented 8.9 per cent of the total. 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE Age Distribution of Judges Gender distribution within age categories showed varying patterns. Women were slightly more than men among judges aged 56–60 years (55.1 per cent female, 44.9 per cent male), while men were higher the 51–55 years category (76.2 per cent male, 23.8 per cent female) and remained the majority among those aged 61–65 years (58.7 per cent male, 41.3 per cent female). Younger cohorts showed parity, with women making up 40.0 per cent in the 41–45 years group and 47.1 per cent in the 46–50 years group. At 65 years and above, representation was fairly even, with 44.4 per cent women and 55.6 per cent men. This is illustrated in Figure 5.1.3. Age Distribution of Judges by Gender Retirement Timeline of Judges Nearly 75 per cent of serving judges are expected to retire within the next 15 years. This signals a major generational transition in the Judiciary. With 30 judges retiring in just 5 years, the Judicial Service Commission needs to proactively recruit, train, and mentor replacements to avoid leadership gaps.

The representation was evenly split by gender, with five male and five female magistrates. Judicial Staff Diversity This section discusses judicial staff diversity in term of gender, age and disability status. Staff Distribution by Gender The Judiciary workforce was almost evenly balanced by gender, with 2,907 males (50.2 per cent) and 2,886 females (49.8 per cent). However, distribution varied across job grades. At the senior-most levels, men were dominant, constituting 77.8 per cent at JSG 1 and 84.6 per cent at JSG 2, underscoring the underrepresentation of women in top leadership. In the middle ranks (JSG 3–7), women formed the majority, averaging 55–57 per cent, reflecting stronger female participation at operational levels. At JSG 9 and 10, men again held the majority at 54.9 per cent and 75.9 per cent respectively. At the entry level (JSG 11), women slightly outnumbered men at 53.0 per cent. Figure 5.1.7 shows the gender distribution across various staff grades.

While Gen X still holds a significant portion of leadership roles, Baby Boomers are gradually phasing out due to retirement and age limits. The Judiciary’s workforce reflects a diverse generational mix. Millennials (born 1981–1996) now make up the majority of judicial staff and legal professionals, contributing tech-savvy approaches and reformist energy that are reshaping institutional practices. Generation X (1965–1980) occupies many senior roles, including judgeships and administrative leadership, providing stability and experience in decision-making. Generation Z (1997– 2012) is beginning to enter the Judiciary in entry-level positions, particularly in legal research, court assistance, and administrative support, bringing fresh perspectives and digital fluency. Meanwhile, Baby Boomers represent only a small fraction of the workforce, mainly serving in advisory or transitional roles as the institution continues to evolve. 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE This generational mix is reshaping institutional culture, with younger cohorts pushing for digital transformation, transparency, and inclusivity. STAJ emphasizes shared leadership across age groups, ensuring that both seasoned professionals and younger voices contribute to institutional growth and Leveraging technology to improve access, especially for youth and marginalized communities. Representation of Persons with Disabilities among Judicial Staff Out of the 5,824 staff, 148 (2.6 per cent) identified as persons with disabilities. Of these, 89 (60 per cent) were male and 59 (40 per cent) were female. 4.1.4. Employee Exits During the 2024/25 financial year, the Judiciary recorded a total of 117 employee exits, comprising 19 resignations, 19 deaths, and 79 retirements. These transitions underscore the importance of robust talent management strategies, including succession planning, retention initiatives, and employee wellness programs, to maintain institutional continuity and operational resilience. The summary of exits is presented in Figure 5.1.11. Employee Exits Resignations A total of 19 resignations were recorded, with one Magistrate, one Tribunal Member, four Legal Researchers and 13 Judicial staff. Primary reasons cited included personal circumstances and pursuit of alternative career opportunities, highlighting the need for enhanced employee engagement and career development frameworks to bolster retention. The distribution by designation is detailed in Table 5.1.13 below. Reasons for Resignations Reason for Resignation Number Personal Reasons 6 Career Progression 3 To Pursue different career path 6 To Pursue Further Studies 1 No Reason Indicated 3 Grand Total 19 Retirements Seventy-nine retirements were processed including 3 judges, 3 magistrates and 73 Judiciary staff. These exits represent a transfer of institutional knowledge and highlight the necessity for effective knowledge management and mentorship and coaching programs to ensure seamless succession and sustained judicial excellence. Exits by Death The Judiciary mourned the loss of 19 employees across various designations including 2 Judges, 3 Judicial Officers and 14 Judicial Staff. These unfortunate events reinforce the criticality of comprehensive health and wellness programs, including psychosocial support, to mitigate risks and support affected families and colleagues. The Chief Justice presided over the closing of file proceedings in tribute to the late Judges, Hon Justice David Majanja and Hon Justice Daniel Ogembo, in an event attended by judges, judicial officers, judicial staff, members of the bar and family. This Special Sitting, though marked by grief, was also a celebration of their outstanding contributions to the law and society. They exemplified the highest standards of judicial practice—integrity, diligence, humility, and a steadfast dedication to justice. The tradition of the Special Court Tribute Proceedings serves as a poignant reminder of the Judiciary's role as stewards of justice and also calls upon the institution to uphold the values these jurists lived by: integrity, fidelity to the rule of law, and service excellence. Their legacy served as a profound inspiration for the Judiciary family, motivating us to advocate for fairness, dignity, and the relentless pursuit of justice for all. 4.2. HUMAN CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT The Judiciary remains steadfast in its commitment to fostering a skilled, innovative, and adaptable workforce to address the dynamic demands of justice delivery in Kenya. Despite significant financial constraints that limited the scope and frequency of training programs for Judges, Judicial Officers, and Judiciary staff in the 2024/25 financial year, the institution implemented strategic measures to enhance professional competencies. 4.2.1. Career Progression Re-designations of Staff During the period under review, 98 staff members were re-designated to new roles, primarily within the Supply Chain and ICT functions, as shown in Table 5.2.1. 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8174 8174 Re-designations of Staff New Designation Grade Total Supply Chain Management Officer II JSG 6 2 Senior ICT Assistant JSG 7 1 Senior Supply Chain Management Assistant JSG 7 3 Senior Human Resource Management and Development Assistant JSG 7 2 ICT Assistant JSG 8 33 Supply Chain Management Assistant JSG 8 57 Grand Total 98 Staff Promotion A total of 1,538 staff members were promoted during the reporting period, as detailed in Table 5.2.3.

Additionally, KSh 116 million was allocated under the Car Loan Scheme to support employees in acquiring personal vehicles. Wellness and Employee Assistance Programs The Judiciary conducted an Employee Satisfaction and Work Environment Survey in March 2025, to assess the experiences, perceptions, and satisfaction levels of its workforce. The survey targeted Judges, Judicial Officers, and Judiciary staff across all court levels and administrative units. The survey findings revealed an overall employee satisfaction index of 60.6 per cent, pointing to a fairly positive workplace environment with clear opportunities for improvement. The key highlights of the survey are as follows: (i) Job Satisfaction and Workload scored the highest at 72.5 per cent, with most employees feeling accomplished and aligned with the Judiciary’s mission. (ii) Remuneration and Benefits had a satisfaction level of 63 per cent, though some concerns remain over the competitiveness and fairness of compensation.

The overall satisfaction rate with Psycho Social Support Unit services stood at 53.5 per cent. Team building has also been institutionalized within the Judiciary as a core component of its human capital strategy. During the 2024/25 financial year, staff retreats and team-building events were conducted across various regions, with a strong emphasis on wellness, peer support, and psychological resilience. These initiatives foster a healthy work culture, enhance staff morale, and promote collaboration among judges, judicial officers, and staff. Benefits include improved interpersonal relationships, reduced burnout, enhanced decision-making capabilities, and increased overall productivity, which are essential for maintaining an efficient and resilient judicial workforce. 4.3.2. Court Buildings and Space Management The Judiciary secured or renewed a total of 15 leases for office spaces in various parts of the country to accommodate judicial officers and staff. Among the notable locations were Kenya Re Plaza, which now houses administrative offices; Kenya Re in Upper Hill, designated for both administrative offices and tribunals; and the Kenya National Library Services and NHIF Building, which were secured for general storage purposes. Three new lease agreements were initiated for Lamu Law Courts, the Employment and Labour Relations Court in Mombasa and Meru Law Courts. Additionally, the Judiciary, in collaboration with County Governments, successfully regularized leases for Marimanti and Mukurweini Law Courts. As part of ongoing efforts to optimize the use of space, several court stations were assessed and identified as having surplus space. These areas are being considered for reallocation to support administrative functions, the establishment of digitization hubs or the creation of witness support rooms. A comprehensive space utilization audit is planned for the next financial year. 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE Green Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability As part of the Judiciary’s ongoing commitment to green infrastructure and environmental sustainability, two additional court stations were equipped with solar energy systems during the reporting period. Further, 18 more stations were approved for upcoming solar installations. With these additions, the total number of solar- powered court stations rose to 59, representing a cumulative investment of KSh 225,178,743.00. 4.3.3. Fleet Management Fleet management within the Judiciary is designed to support efficient mobility, timely service delivery, and access to justice across Kenya’s decentralized court system. Vehicles are deployed to facilitate judicial officers' movement, mobile court sessions, and administrative logistics. The Judiciary's fleet in the report consisted of 566 motor vehicles, comprising 491 owned by the Judiciary and 75 leased units. Despite these efforts, the judiciary had serious challenges of old fleet, and new stations lacking vehicles. 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8178 8178 CHAPTER SIX: RESOURCE MOBILISATION AND UTILISATION INTRODUCTION The timely delivery of justice is linked to the availability of sufficient and predictable funding, an imperative that is articulated in the STAJ blueprint, which emphasizes the need for strengthened financial mechanisms that support the independence and integrity of the Judiciary. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the Judiciary’s financial position during Financial Year 2024/25, including resource requirements, budgetary allocations, and the strategies employed for the management and utilization of available funds. It examines critical areas such as system automation, revenue and court deposit management, and the operations of the Judiciary Fund. Further, it highlights key thematic priorities that received support through strategic partnerships. 9.1. AUTOMATION OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT The Judiciary commenced the automation and transition of all administrative processes to an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system known as Jumuika, a customized platform designed to support end to end automation of Judiciary operations, including financial management. The system supported strategic financial management by facilitating work planning, costing, procurement planning, budget consolidation and adjustments, thereby strengthening budget management and expenditure control. Furthermore, the Jumuika ERP system is also integrated with the Case Tracking System allowing for online case registration, including automated fee assessments, imposition of court fines, and management of cash bail deposits. The ERP system enhanced internal controls by embedding approval hierarchies, audit trails, and alerts into the financial management process while also strengthening compliance with the Public Finance Management Act and other regulatory frameworks. 9.2. BUDGET PREPARATION AND ALLOCATION In accordance with Article 173(3) of the Constitution, the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary prepared annual estimates of expenditure for the Judiciary. Public hearing and consultative forums were conducted to ensure budget formulation process incorporates input from a wide range of stakeholders, including members of the public. The engagement covered five regions: South Nyanza (held in Kisii), Upper Eastern (held in Isiolo), Central Rift Valley (held in Narok), Lower Eastern (held in Kitui), and Nairobi (held at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre). The insights gathered during these forums were instrumental in shaping a more inclusive and needs driven budget. They reinforced the Judiciary’s commitment to participatory governance and strengthened public confidence in the institution’s financial accountability and strategic planning processes. Table 9.2.1: Feedback from the previous financial year that was implemented during the reporting period Key feedback Intervention Failure to establish High Courts to all the Counties across the country given the constitution was promulgated in the year 2010 Establishing a High Court in every county had taken time to be achieved due to limited funding. However, a High Court Sub-Registry was established in Wajir in FY2024/25 thereby extending the High Court’s presence to all counties. Further, a High Court was also operationalized in Makadara Law Courts. Judiciary to support affirmative action especially offering opportunities to the youth The Ajira/MADIP programme was implemented during the reporting period. 1,000 youth were engaged in various court stations to assist in digitisation of court records. In addition, access to Government Procurement Opportunities (AGPO) for the youth was maintained at 30%. Decentralize Judiciary Services through Huduma Mashinani for wider access to justice Judiciary service desks were operational in six Huduma Centres—Nairobi G.P.O, City Square, Kibera, Eastleigh, Thika, and Makadara. The extension of the services to other Huduma Centers was put on hold pending consultations with key stakeholders. Judiciary to collaborate with Civil society groups which have networks across the country to sensitize communities on ADR mechanisms such as mediation and Small Claims Court The Judiciary, through the multi-stakeholder committee, advanced the Alternative Justice Systems (AJS) Policy by focusing on training, public awareness, and county-level action plans. AJS action plans were launched in six counties, while training and capacity building was offered to 600 AJS stakeholders. 14 new Court Annex Mediation registries were established bringing the number to 82, across 42 counties while Small Claims Courts numbering 40 across the country. 9.2.1. Budget Requirements and Allocation The Judiciary has operated under persistent budget constraints, with allocations falling short of the total resource requirements. Budgetary needs have consistently been inadequate, with funding gaps of 47%, 48% and 49% in the previous three financials year as demonstrated in figure 6.2.1. Figure 9.2.1: Funding gap in the previous three financial years 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE In the FY 2024/25, the Judiciary required KSh 44.90 billion but was allocated KSh 22.78 billion, leading to a funding gap of KSh 22.12 billion, a 49 per cent shortfall. In FY 2023/24, the resource requirement was KSh 43.17 billion against an allocation of KSh 22.42 billion, leaving a gap of KSh 20.75 billion, an overall shortfall of 48 per cent. During FY 2022/23, the Judiciary required KSh 39.55 billion but received an allocation of KSh 21.13 billion, resulting in a funding gap of KSh18.42 billion. This represented an overall shortfall of 47 per cent as demonstrated in table 6.2.2. Table 9.2.2: Resource Requirements Vs Allocation over the last three fiscal years Financial Year 2022/23 2023/24 2024/25 Requirements Allocation Funding Gap Requirements Allocation Funding Gap Requirements Allocation Funding Gap Recurrent (KSh Billion) 32.59 19.23 13.36 35.81 21.02 14.79 38.62 21.96 16.66 Development (KSh Billion) 6.96 1.90 5.06 7.36 1.40 5.96 6.28 0.82 5.46 Overall 39.55 21.13 18.42 43.17 22.42 20.75 44.90 22.78 22.12 9.2.2. Resource Allocation Trend The Judiciary had an overall allocation of KSh 22.78 billion in the Financial Year 2024/25, reflecting an increase of 1.6 per cent from the KSh 22.42 billion in FY 2023/24 and 6.1 per cent increase from the allocation of KSh 21.13 billion in FY2022/23. Recurrent allocation for FY 2024/25 was KSh 21.96 billion indicating an increase of 4.5 per cent from the KSh 21.02 billion in FY 2023/24 and increase of 9.3 per cent compared to KSh 19.23 billion in FY 2022/23. Development allocation was KSh 0.82 billion indicating a decrease of 41.7 per cent from the KSh 1.4 billion in FY 2023/24 and reduction of 26.3 per cent from KSh 1.9 billion in FY 2022/23. Figure 9.2.2: Resource Allocation trend for the three financial years 9.2.3. Underfunded Areas The funding deficits of KSh 22.12 billion had a far-reaching implication on the Judiciary’s ability to deliver on its constitutional mandate. Underfunding of recurrent expenditure, which covered critical operational needs such as salaries, contractual obligations and other operational expenses, undermined efficiency and contributed to the growing backlog of cases. Equally, the underfunding of the development budget affected infrastructure expansion, court construction, modernisation of courtrooms, and investment in ICT systems. As a result, efforts to enhance access to justice, digitise court operations and decentralise judicial services were significantly hampered. In particular, recruitment of Judicial Officers and staff had a gap of KSh 10.67 billion, capital projects KSh 5.46 billion, digital strategy and automation KSh 1.89 billion, operationalisation of new courts KSh 1.49 and rapid results initiatives like services weeks, circuits, special benches etc had deficit of 0.62 billion as illustrated in Figure 6.2.3. 19.23 21.02 21.96 1.90 1.40 0.82 21.13 22.42 22.78 0.00 5.00 10.00 15.00 20.00 25.00 2022/23 2023/24 2024/25 Amounts KShs Billions Recurrent Allocation Development Allocation Overall Allocation 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8180 8180 Figure 9.2.3: Funding gap on critical areas 9.2.4. Judiciary Budget as a percentage of the National Government Budget For the past three financial years, the Judiciary has consistently received less than 1 percent of the National Government Budget—significantly below the recommended 3 percent of the annual national budget. Figure 6.7 shows that the Judiciary received the least amount of funding compared to the executive and legislative arms. The Executive had an allocation of KSh 2,050.15 billion in FY 2022/23, KSh 2,374.80 billion in the FY 2023/24 and KSh 2,237.16 in the FY 2024/25. Parliament had KSh 50.22 billion, KSh 41.39 billion and KSh40.87 billion for FY 2022/23, FY 2023/24 and FY2024/25 respectively. While for the Judiciary had budget allocation of KSh 21.13 billion for the FY 2022/23, KSh 22.42 billion FY2023/24 and KSh 22.78 billion in the FY 2024/25 Whilst disparity in budgetary allocation to the respective arms of government is to be expected, the extent of the disparity is not proportionate. The Judiciary will continue to engage with Parliament and the stakeholders for an increase in the budgetary allocation to the institution, and to have this allocation anchored in the law as envisioned in the Social Transformation through Access to Justice Blueprint. Figure 9.2.4: Proportion of Budget Allocation within the Three Arms of Government for the past three years 9.3. INTERNAL RESOURCE SHARING The Judiciary’s internal allocation of funds follows a priority based and equitable resource sharing criteria, aimed at supporting both its core judicial functions and administrative operations. As a service-oriented institution, the Judiciary relies heavily on human capital to dispense justice. Personnel emoluments classified under Compensation of Employees received the highest allocation in FY 2024/25, accounting for KSh 15.28 billion, or 69.6 per cent of the total budget, giving priority to non-discretionary expenditures. The remaining 30.4 per cent of the total budget was allocated to Operations and Maintenance (O&M), supporting both administrative and court- related functions. This includes KSh 6.51 billion (29.6 per cent) for the use of goods and services such as security, cleaning services, utilities, insurance (including medical and life assurance), and contractual obligations as well as KSh 0.17 billion (0.8 per cent) for the acquisition of non- financial assets (furniture and fittings, purchase of motor vehicle among others). On the development side, capital expenditure amounted to KSh 0.82 billion, of which 92.2 per cent was directed to asset acquisition, and the remainder to operations.

Budget share per Court for Operations and Maintenance In the Financial Year 2024/25, a total of KSh2 .5 billion was allocated for Operations and Maintenance across various courts and Tribunals. This allocation, excluding personnel emoluments, was intended to support the day-to-day running of court operations, including utilities, contractual obligations, minor repairs, and general maintenance. In line with its broad geographical footprint and higher caseloads, Magistrates’ Courts received the largest share, accounting for 61 per cent of the total O&M allocation. The Small Claims Court’s O&M budgets were merged with those of the Magistrates’ Courts to ensure budget efficiency. The High Court followed with 14 per cent, while Tribunals received nine per cent. The distribution is as illustrated in Figure 6.3.1. Figure 9.3.1: Allocation of budget per court level 9.3.2. Absorption and Utilisation of Judiciary Budget The Judiciary recorded an overall budget absorption rate of 98 per cent in the FY 2024/25, marking an improvement from 96 per cent in FY 2023/24. The recurrent budget absorption increased slightly from 98 per cent to 99 per cent, indicating sustained consistency in managing operational and personnel related expenditures. On the other hand, the development vote recorded a significant improvement in absorption, rising from 66 per cent in FY 2023/24 to 78 per cent in FY 2024/25, a 12 per cent increase as illustrated in Figure 6.3.2.

Analysis of Recurrent and Development Expenditure A total of KSh 21.81 billion was absorbed out of the KSh 21.96 billion allocated under the recurrent vote as demonstrated in Table 6.3.2. On the other hand, the development vote declined from KSh1.40 billion in FY 2023/24 to KSh 0.82 billion in FY 2024/25, a reduction by 42 per cent. The development expenditure focused primarily on investment in ICT infrastructure and equipment and refurbishment of court buildings Table 9.3.2: Analysis of Recurrent and Development Budget Expenditure Economic Classification 2022/23 2023/24 2024/25 Approved Allocation Actual Expenditure Approved Allocation Actual Expenditure Approved Allocation Actual Expenditure Recurrent Expenditure Compensation to Employees 12.44 12.36 14.06 13.91 15.28 15.27 Other Recurrent 6.79 6.31 6.96 6.80 6.69 6.54 Sub-Total 19.23 18.66 21.02 20.70 21.96 21.81 Development Expenditure GOK 1.90 1.49 1.40 0.93 0.82 0.64 Loans - - - - - - Sub-Total 1.90 1.49 1.40 0.93 0.82 0.64 Total 21.13 20.15 22.42 21.63 22.78 22.45 9.3.4. Analysis of Programme Expenditure The Judiciary implements one national program, the Dispensation of Justice Program, delivered through two sub-programs: Access to Justice and Administration and Support Services. The Access to Justice sub-program encompasses initiatives to enhance case clearance rates, recruit judges, judicial officers and staff, establish and operationalize courts, and improve court operations through innovations such as e-filing, virtual courts, Electronic Document Review (EDR), and Alternative Justice Systems (AJS). The Administration and Support Services sub-program covers expenditure on goods and services as well as the acquisition of non- financial assets. Of the total approved budget of KSh 22.78 billion in the FY 2024/25, KSh 15.72 billion (70%) was allocated to Access to Justice, while KSh 6.74 billion (30%) was directed to Administration and Support Services. as presented in Table 6.3.3.

PENDING BILLS (ACCOUNTS PAYABLES) During FY2024/2025, the Government transitioned to accrual accounting, which altered the recognition of pending bills. Under this framework, pending bills are recorded as accounts payable once commitments are entered in the system. All duly submitted payment requests were honoured, with unpaid balances reported as accounts payable. Notably, liabilities from Court and Arbitral Awards declined from KSh 69.24 million to KSh 49.84 million compared to the previous year, following the settlement of KSh 19.4 million. Pending bills, however, remained a major challenge, particularly within the development budget, caused by delays in the delivery of works, goods, and services hence not being recognised in the system by end of the financial year. The analysis is presented in Table 6.4.1. Table 9.4.1: Pending Bills at Close of FY 2022/23 – FY 2024/25 FY2022/23 (KSh Million) FY2023/24 (KSh Million) FY2024/25 (KSh Million) Development Pending Bills 76.23 410.01 - Recurrent Pending Bills 259.11 331.92 14.30 Court & Arbitration- Awards 272.73 69.24 49.84 Total 608.07 811.17 64.14 The settlement of accrued liabilities continued to take priority in budget execution, often requiring the re-prioritization and reallocation of already limited resources. In compliance with the National Treasury Circular on verification of historical pending bills, claims amounting to KSh 576.59 million relating to goods and services supplied between June 1, 2005 and June 30, 2022 were submitted to the Pending Bills Verification Committee for authentication and were awaiting determination. 9.5. COURT REVENUE Court revenues are drawn from multiple sources, including fees, fines, penalties, forfeitures, statutory charges, proceeds from disposals, rental income from government property, and interest earned on court deposits. During the reporting period, collections comprised both estimated and un- estimated revenue. Estimated revenue included fines, penalties, forfeitures, court service fees, sales, and miscellaneous receipts, while un-estimated revenue mainly arose from rent income and interest on court deposit balances. 9.5.1. Revenue Collections Each financial year, the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury sets an official revenue target for the Judiciary, to be received by the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary. The target was raised from KSh 2.7 billion in FY 2023/24 to KSh 2.83 billion in FY 2024/25 reflecting a modest but strategic increase in expected collections. The Judiciary recorded a total revenue collection of KSh 2.88 billion, surpassing the target of KSh 2.83 billion. This represented a performance rate of 101.74 per cent, exceeding projected revenue expectations. The revenue was derived from four main streams namely; fines, fees, interest on court deposits, and rental income. Among these, court fees emerged as the leading source, contributing KSh 1.36 billion, which translates to 47.35 per cent of total revenue. This collection exceeded the projected target of KSh 1.25 billion, achieving a realization rate of 109.10 per cent. The strong performance in this category can be attributed to increased utilization of court services and automation. Fines contributed KSh 1.22 billion, accounting for 42.34 per cent of the total revenue. However, this fell short of the target of KSh 1.58 billion, reflecting a realization rate of 77.14 per cent. The underperformance in fines may be attributed to a reduction in the volume or nature of penal cases concluded during the period, enhanced compliance with court orders reducing forfeitures, or administrative bottlenecks in enforcing fine payments. Interest earned on court deposits amounted to KSh 291 million, representing 10.12 per cent of total revenue. Although this stream was not part of the initial revenue projections, its substantial contribution underscores the significance of financial management practices concerning court held funds. Similarly, rental income contributed KSh 5 million, representing 0.18 per cent of total revenue. Like interest income, this category had no prior estimates but still added to the overall performance. Table 6.5.1 presents a summary of revenue collected during FY2024/25. Table 9.5.1: Revenue collection verses Targets Details Targets Actual Realization (KSh Million) (KSh Million) % Fines 1,580 1,219 77.14% Fees 1,249 1,363 109.10% Interest on deposits - 291 - Rent Income - 5 - Total 2,829 2,878 101.74% 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8184 8184 Fees constituted the major portion of the revenue component for the Judiciary at 47.35 per cent whereas rent from property and miscellaneous income made up 0.18 per cent of the total revenue as illustrated on Figure 6.5.1. Figure 9.5.1: Revenue composition for the period ended 30 June, 2025 9.5.2. Revenue Trends In FY 2024/25, revenue recorded a collection of KSh 2.88 billion, indicating a two percent decrease compared to the previous financial year. A drop is primarily attributed to a reduction in the number of criminal cases filed. However, there was a consistent upward trajectory in Judiciary revenue collection over the past financial years. Total annual revenue rose from KSh2.66 billion in FY2022/23 to KSh2.94 billion in FY2023/24 representing an 11 per cent increase. This is as presented in Table 6.5.2. Several strategic initiatives contributed to the increase in revenue collection: these included Case Tracking System and the full roll -out of electronic filing to all court stations which enhanced operational efficiency and reduced revenue leakage; adoption of cashless payment platforms which minimized cash handling risks; automated electronic fee assessment which improved transparency, accuracy, and collection efficiency. Table 9.5.2: Revenue Trends for same period in the last three Financial Years FY2022/2023 FY2023/202024 FY2024/2025 KSh Million KSh Million KSh Million Fines, Penalties and Forfeitures & Utilisations 1,419 1,464 1,219 Fees on use of Goods/Services 1,041 1,208 1,363 Interest on Deposit 197 268 291 Rent Income 3 3 5 Total 2,661 2,943 2,878 An analysis of specific revenue streams over the three financial year period reveals mixed performance across categories: • Fines saw a modest increase of 3.2 per cent in FY2023/24, but experienced a notable decline of 16.8 per cent in FY2024/25. This drop is primarily attributed to a reduction in the number of criminal cases filed from 292,138 cases in FY2023/24 to 267,425 in FY2024/25, a decline of 24,713 cases (8.45 per cent). In addition, enhanced public awareness of court procedures led to increased compliance and a corresponding reduction in forfeitures. Forfeiture revenue decreased from KSh 247 million in FY2023/24 to KSh 185 million in FY2024/25. The growing adoption of Small Claims Courts, which typically involve civil matters and offer limited scope for fines, also contributed to the decline. • Court fees demonstrated robust and consistent growth over the review period. Revenues rose by 16 per cent from FY2022/23 to FY2023/24, and by a further 12.9 per cent in FY2024/25. This trend reflects increased access to and utilization of judicial services, particularly through the Small Claims Courts. Notably, the number of cases filed in Small Claims Courts surged from 41,524 in FY2023/24 to 158,357 in FY2024/25, a 281 per cent increase. The uptake of the e-filing system further facilitated timely registration and processing of cases, boosting revenue generation. 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE • Interest on deposits also exhibited strong performance, increasing by 36.1 per cent in FY2023/24 and by 8.5 per cent in FY2024/25. This growth was attributed to rising interest rates, which increased from an average of six per cent to 12 per cent during the period. Interest revenue was earned on balances held in Kenya Commercial Bank. • Rental income, while the smallest revenue source, recorded a 12.5 per cent decline in FY2023/24 due to amounts remaining uncollected at the end the financial year. These arrears were subsequently recovered in FY2024/25, resulting in a 100.5 per cent increase compared to the previous year. 9.5.3. Trends in Revenue Proportions Court fines constituted the major portion of revenue over the past two financial years at 53.33 per cent in FY2022/23, 49.80 per cent in FY2023/24 but reduced to 42.34 per cent in FY2024/25. Court fees increased steadily from 39.14 per cent in FY2022/23 to 41.0 per cent in FY2023/24 to 47.4 per cent in reporting period becoming the major portion. Figure 6.5.2 shows an overall steady rise in revenue collections from the different categories from FY2022/2023 to FY 2024/2025. Figure 9.5.2: Revenue proportions for FY2022/2023 - FY2024/25 The interest on deposit income proportion rose from 7.41 per cent in FY2022/23 to 9.12 per cent in FY2023/24 to 10.12 per cent in FY2024/25. This upward trend was due to higher interest rates and larger deposit balances eligible to attract interest held by the Judiciary. The proportion by rent income remained minimal, fluctuating slightly between 0.11 per cent (FY2022/2023), 0.09 per cent (FY2023/24) and 0.18 per cent (FY2024/2025). 9.6. COURT DEPOSITS Court deposits refer to funds held in trust by the Judiciary as a safeguard while a court case is ongoing. By the close of FY2024/2025, the total value of court deposits stood at KSh 8.25 billion, reflecting a decrease of KSh 0.18 billion compared to the previous financial year. The outstanding deposit balance as at the end of FY2024/2025 had been KSh 8.25 billion, as illustrated in Figure 6.6.1. Figure 9.6.1: Trend on deposits balances, KSh Billion 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8186 8186 It is important to note that court deposits paid in cash such as bail or bond do not constitute revenue for the Judiciary or the Government. In certain circumstances, the deposits may be applied towards the payment of fines or forfeited to the State if the accused fails to adhere to bail or bond conditions. A detailed breakdown of cash bail deposits held across court stations is provided in Appendix 6.5. Unclaimed Court Deposits Unclaimed court deposits refer to funds held by the Judiciary that have not been collected by the rightful owners or beneficiaries, despite the conclusion of legal proceedings and the issuance of appropriate refund orders. These funds typically remain unclaimed due to various reasons, including lack of awareness, the death of the depositor, or unresolved disputes regarding rightful ownership. To support the identification and recovery process, the Judiciary took multiple public outreach initiatives. These included the issuance of public notices, media and radio campaigns which targeted outreach to potential claimants. Through these efforts, the Judiciary aimed at enhancing transparency, encourage rightful claims, and ensure accountability in the management of court held funds. Following the recommendations of a joint task force of the Judiciary and the Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority (UFAA), court stations commenced systematic reviews of unclaimed deposits linked to closed case files. These reviews focused on identifying funds that qualify as unclaimed under the UFA Act and ensured they are processed in accordance with legal requirements. The overarching goal of this initiative was to ensure that such funds are either refunded to the rightful parties or appropriately transferred to the UFAA, thereby safeguarding public trust and promoting lawful financial stewardship. 9.7. COLLABORATION WITH DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS In line with its commitment to enhance access to justice under the STAJ blueprint, the Judiciary strengthened strategic partnerships with key development partners and stakeholders. These collaborations provided both financial and technical support, enabling the Judiciary to improve its operations, foster innovation, and expand access to justice across the country. The support was through the following thematic areas: 1. Capacity building This was undertaken through various activities, including conferences, training sessions, colloquia, and the provision of equipment as follows; Provision of Equipment to Support Digital Operation: To enhance the Judiciary’s digital capacity, 47 laptops were provided to facilitate improved court operations and service delivery. This equipment support was made possible through the European Union, under the Programme for Legal Empowerment and Aid Delivery (PLEAD II), which is implemented by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. Additionally, the International Development Law Organization supported the launch of the end-to-end automation at Eldoret Small Claims Court together with ICT equipment. IDLO further supported roll-out of the Small Claims Court in Voi and Garissa Law Courts. Judicial exchange on SGBV convened by ICJ Global, KELIN, and CHR Capetown deepened understanding of gender-based violence jurisprudence. Judicial Dialogue on Tax Adjudication, supported by KRA, KBA, ICPAK, and LSK, enhanced competence in complex tax matters. Similarly, Reprieve UK contributed to judicial consistency through providing support on post-Muruatetu resentencing. Other vital trainings included the adjudication of counter- terrorism cases (supported by USDOJ/OPDAT, the British High Commission, FRC, ODPP, NCTC, and NCTAC), and continuous judicial education on arbitration with the help of NICA, AFGAC, CIArb Kenya, and Women in ADR. Training Sessions for Labour-related Adjudication: A series of training sessions on International Labour Standards (ILS) were organized for Judges, Magistrates, Registrars, and Judges of the Employment and Labour Relations Court. These capacity-building trainings were facilitated by the International Labour Organization (ILO). Judicial Officers and Kadhis Colloquium: The Judicial Officers and Kadhis Colloquium, a platform for legal knowledge exchange and peer engagement, received financial and logistical support from Safaricom, KPLC, KETRACO, and KCB. Their collaboration enabled a robust discussion on judicial practices and professional development among Kadhis and Judicial Officers. The Supreme Court @ 12 Jurisprudential Conference: The Judiciary hosted The Supreme Court @ 12 Jurisprudential Conference as a key knowledge- sharing and legal development event. This major conference was co-sponsored by KCB, and further supported by Konrad-Adenauer- Stiftung, the Centre for Reproductive Rights (CRR), the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ), the International Justice Mission (IJM), and Safaricom. These partners provided both financial and technical support to ensure the success of the conference. High Court Human Rights Summit: This Summit, which brought together judges and legal experts to deliberate on judicial reforms and access to justice, was supported by a wide array of institutions. These included the KCB Foundation, ICJ (Kenya), Centre for Rights Education and Awareness (CREAW), Kenya Legal & Ethical Issues Network on HIV & AIDS (KELIN), the Institute for Strategic Litigation in Africa (ISLA), the Kenya Human Rights Commission, ZanaAfrica Foundation, and the United States Department of Justice (USDoJ). Their involvement ensured a comprehensive engagement on emerging legal themes. Employment and Labour Relations Annual Symposium and Exhibition (ELRASE): ELRASE served as a significant forum for capacity building in the field of labour law. The ILO took a lead role in supporting the event, alongside several other partners including the Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA), Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU), Kenya Tea Growers (KTG), Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE), Kituo Cha Sheria, and the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). These organizations contributed to the success of the symposium by offering both content and sponsorship support. The ELRC Judges Conference, organized with support from KDIC, ICJ Kenya, and Transparency International, further explored labour-related jurisprudence. Regional and international knowledge-sharing opportunities were also facilitated by Equality Now and the Council of Europe. Environment and Land Court (ELC) Climate Change Conference: The ELC Climate Change Conference served as a strategic capacity-building event focused on climate justice, land governance, and the legal dimensions of environmental sustainability. This important conference was supported by FLLoCA, IMPACT, GIZ, OXFAM, and CPF, all of whom contributed technical expertise and financial resources, enabling the Judiciary to develop a framework for climate litigation and environmental rights adjudication. 2. Green Justice Installation of Solar Power Systems in Law Courts: In line with the Judiciary’s green transition agenda, installation of solar power systems was underway in six law courts: Butere, Tigania, Webuye, Marsabit, Kehancha, and Ogembo. This initiative is aimed to reduce the Judiciary’s carbon footprint, promote energy efficiency, and ensure uninterrupted court operations in remote areas. This green infrastructure initiative was made possible through the support of the European Union, under the Programme for Legal Empowerment and Aid Delivery (PLEAD II), implemented by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). 21st November, 2025 THE KENYA GAZETTE Environmental justice featured prominently in the Judiciary’s programming, with critical support from partners committed to combating environmental and wildlife-related crimes. The Judiciary, in partnership with the Africa Network for Animal Welfare (ANAW), Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), and the Kenya Airports Authority, participated in the 11 th National Dialogue on Wildlife and Environmental Crime, which focused on strengthening enforcement mechanisms and judicial approaches to wildlife protection. To further bolster judicial responses to environmental offenses, UNODC supported the development of a Bench-book on Wildlife, Forestry, and Fisheries Crimes. This resource serves as a practical reference for judicial officers handling complex cases in this growing area of law. These initiatives signify the Judiciary’s proactive stand in addressing environmental threats through law and the promotion of sustainability via informed adjudication. 3. ICT Infrastructure Support The Judiciary received valuable support in ICT development. The Africa Law Tech Festival, organized by Lawyers Hub, brought together legal and tech professionals to explore innovations in digital justice. Complementing this was the CJE on Tech Justice, supported by Safaricom PLC, Airtel Kenya, the Communication Authority of Kenya, and Lawyers Hub, which provided judicial officers with insight into emerging technologies and their impact on justice delivery. In addition, a judicial conversation on data protection was organized with the support of GIZ and the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC). These engagements emphasized the need for data privacy, cybersecurity, and digital literacy within judicial operations. Together, these interventions advanced the Judiciary’s digital transformation efforts, improved institutional responsiveness to tech-related legal issues, and enhanced infrastructure preparedness. 4. Inclusivity With support from the Ford Foundation, the Judiciary is implementing a series of initiatives aimed at advancing inclusivity and equitable access to justice, especially for persons with disabilities (PWDs) and marginalized communities. Key interventions include the translation of Judiciary policies into Braille and audio formats, a nationwide mapping of court infrastructure to assess accessibility, and the annual Inclusivity Forum, which brings together individuals with disabilities and special needs for dialogue and policy input. Additional activities such as community social justice dialogues, victim-centric training, and trauma- sensitive capacity building will ensure that the justice system is more responsive to the needs of vulnerable groups. These efforts are grounded in the Judiciary’s long-term goal of ensuring that every Kenyan regardless of socio-economic status, geographical location, or personal vulnerability experiences justice as a daily reality. To support this vision, Ford Foundation will support Judiciary to the tune of one million US Dollars (about KSh130 million) for the next five years. The Judiciary received KSh 44.5 million in the FY2024/25 to implement some of the outlined initiatives. Through these actions, the Judiciary is making tangible progress toward building a justice system that is not only professional and efficient but also inclusive, people- centered, and accessible to all. The Judiciary’s focus on inclusivity was strengthened through targeted programs addressing the needs of marginalized and vulnerable groups. A key highlight was the Judicial Multi stakeholder forum on Access to Justice for Key Populations, People Living with HIV, and those affected by Tuberculosis, supported by ICJ Global, KELIN, and the NSDCC. Another major initiative was the training on Technology-Facilitated Gender- Based Violence (TFGBV), delivered by COVAW and IREX, which enhanced the Judiciary's capacity to respond to digital and gender-based violence. UNODC’s support for a national ToT on adjudicating Trafficking in Persons and Smuggling of Migrants (TiP & SoM) contributed to the Judiciary’s understanding of transnational human rights violations. Additionally, the Judiciary’s participation in the AJJF Conference promoted regional dialogue on justice access and fairness. These inclusive initiatives reflect the Judiciary’s dedication to ensuring that vulnerable populations are not left behind in the pursuit of justice. 6:16 PM THE KENYA GAZETTE 21st November, 2025 8188 8188 CHAPTER 7 - EMERGING ISSUES AND POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS Theme Emerging Issue Key Policy Recommendation Actor 1.
