THE MINISTER OF JUSTICE DIRECTS TO ACTIVATE REMOTE AGENCY DOCUMENTATION FOR PRISON INMATES

His Excellency the Minister of Justice, Dr. Walid bin Muhammad Al-Samaani, directed the activation of the service of issuing electronic agencies through self-service machines, in prisons of all regions, in cooperation with the General Directorate of Prisons. The service allows prison inmates to issue electronic agencies through visual communication with the notaries assigned to the Documentation Operations Center, without the need for a notary in charge of the prison. The ministry indicated that the service of the beneficiaries of the inmates was previously carried out through the presence of a notary at the prison, explaining that after activating the electronic service in cooperation with the General Directorate of Prisons, they will be served throughout the official working days electronically through visual communication. The ministry indicated that activating the new service in prisons will increase quality control and follow-up and make it easier for all inmates in prisons to conduct documentation services in an electronic manner, with ease, ease and speed. The Ministry of Justice confirmed that all organizational and technical aspects in this regard will be agreed upon with the General Directorate of Prisons, to generalize the service to the rest of the prisons in the Kingdom. The new service comes as part of the Ministry of Justice’s endeavor to digitalize its full services and automate all administrative and documentation procedures and systems, to facilitate the beneficiaries and shorten their time and effort.
