TT JUDICIARY Court Protocol and Information Manager Jones P Madeira said the problem facing members of the public due to the lack of a waiting area at the Family Court at the Siparia Magistrates’ Court will soon be solved.

Madeira said that a property in the Siparia area is being acquired to relocate the current magistrates’ court which house three courtrooms.

“ At the moment designs are being finalised for the design of the new court. This new design will facilitate everyone,” Madeira said.

Last week the Hotline received numerous complaints from members of the public who have business in the court, as well as security officers, about the lack of a waiting area at the Family Court.

They said due to the size of this court, which was previously used by a Justice of the Peace, there is no public gallery to facilitate the public.
