President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, who is also the President of the Supreme Council of the Judiciary (CSM), announced this Sunday that the new status of the judiciary will be enacted before the end of 2025. This announcement was made during the official opening ceremony of the 2025-2026 judicial year at the Supreme Court headquarters in Algiers.
In his speech, the head of state emphasized the strategic importance of justice in the process of strengthening the rule of law, while reaffirming his commitment to ensuring the necessary conditions for the independence, integrity, and efficiency of the judicial system. “Convinced of the vital role of the judiciary, we have constantly insisted, in directives addressed to the government, on the importance of properly supporting the officials in the justice sector and continuing efforts to uphold judicial ethics,” President Tebboune stated.
He highlighted the need to guarantee judges adequate living and working conditions, considering this an essential means to enable them to fully dedicate themselves to their mission. “It is crucial to meet the everyday needs of judges so that they can devote themselves entirely to their duties,” he added.
Tebboune also praised the work accomplished by the judiciary, expressing his appreciation for the efforts made and the results achieved, which he views as the fruits of reforms undertaken in recent years. For the head of state, the opening of this new judicial year is also a moment for assessment and forward planning. He reaffirmed his commitment to mobilize all necessary human and material resources for a justice system that meets citizens’ expectations and remains faithful to the ideals of the November Revolution. “We are working to establish an independent and incorruptible justice system that reflects the rule of law, in a spirit of loyalty to the Algerian people and the nation’s martyrs,” Abdelmadjid Tebboune highlighted.
