Africa-Press – Angola. Angola will intensify the massification of birth registration and the attribution of identity cards, to benefit a greater number of citizens, said Tuesday the Secretary of State for Justice, Evaristo José Solano.
The person in charge responded to the concerns of the deputies, in the National Assembly, during the discussion and contributions to the Proposed General State Budget (OGE) for 2023.
“The attribution of BI is, basically, a goal that we have set and we have the ambition that, at the end of this mandate, we will then have the frontality to raise the flag of duty fulfilled in which every national citizen can have his identity with him”, said.
The Secretary of State for Justice also informed that the supervising ministry also has as a priority the materialization of the new judicial geography, that is, the implementation of the comarca courts and the court of appeals in the country.
Regarding the concerns of the deputies regarding the sector’s human resources, he said that they took good note of the need to re-establish partnerships with other teaching instructions.
On the other hand, the chairman of the 10th Commission of the Parliament (Human Rights, Petitions, Complaints and Citizens’ Suggestions), Virgílio Tyova, defended the increase in the sums of the Attorney General’s Office (PGR) in the OGE, due to its specificity.
He clarified that the prosecution and defense of the rights and freedoms and guarantees of citizens begins precisely with the Public Prosecutor’s Office (MP).
According to the deputy, a prosecutor often serves three judges or more than two police stations, while the judge is only deployed in a single court, but the PGR unfolds not only in the courts, at all levels, and in various institutions, “for this has to have more resources”.
The deputy also expressed the need to place sign language interpreters in the institutions.
He noticed that when the deaf person is judged, without an adequate interpreter, he can be judged inappropriately.
PGR without prescriptions
The Attorney General of the Republic, Hélder Pitta Groz, declared that the institution he directs lacks revenue, noting that the only revenue of the PGR is the General State Budget (OGE).
“Contrary to the courts that have it, we only have it when it is for the payment of a guarantee, but this money does not revert to the institution, it goes as a process until the final stage (…)”, he stressed.
