Office of Civil and Criminal Justice Reform

The Commonwealth Office of Civil and Criminal Justice Reform helps member countries through the creation of fair and effective national laws.

We provide examples of good legislation practices from across the Commonwealth through model laws, standards, templates and legal insight and legal networks.

We facilitate knowledge and information sharing to member countries based on these resources.
