President Akufo-Addo, in his State of the Nation Address in Parliament, lauded the Attorney General's achievements in Ghana's legal landscape, highlighting significant cost savings.
He praised the Attorney General, Godfred Dame, for effectively contesting civil litigation against the state, which has resulted in avoiding numerous judgment debts, saving the country over GH¢10 trillion.
"The Attorney-General has continued, in a very effective manner, the tradition under this administration of contesting every civil litigation against the state, and has avoided the numerous judgement debts that used to be given against the state. The Office, as a result, has saved the country over ten trillion Ghana cedis (GH¢10 trillion)," he said.
Additionally, President Akufo-Addo mentioned the Judicial Service's efforts to modernize legal operations and improve access to justice.
He noted the introduction of a virtual court system during the COVID-19 pandemic, initially implemented in seventeen courts and later expanded to nineteen High Courts.
By December 2023, one hundred and sixty courts were equipped with real-time transcription devices, and fifty-one courts piloted a paperless court system in Accra.
The integration of real-time transcription devices has transformed the recording and documentation of court proceedings, marking a significant digitalization effort in the court system.
The Judicial Service aims to continue expanding its digitalization initiatives to further improve the efficiency and accessibility of the court system.
