2003/04 – 2005/06 SERVICE PLAN
Ministry of Attorney General

Consistency with Government
Strategic Plan

The Government Strategic Plan provides the broad framework within which individual ministries pursue their goals. That Plan calls for a fair and efficient system of justice as one of the objectives in realizing government’s vision for a prosperous and just province. The goals, objectives and strategies included in the Ministry of Attorney General Service Plan support, and expand upon, this vision.

As described in an earlier section of this Service Plan, two of the key measures in the Government Strategic Plan are directly linked to two high-level ministry goals and are being used to measure overall justice system performance.

Further, as shown below, ministry core business areas are working separately and together to address all justice-related strategies in the Government Strategic Plan.

Deregulation

The Ministry of Attorney General recognizes the significance of continuing the government’s commitment to reduce the regulatory burden. To help realize this commitment, the ministry is examining substantial law reform initiatives that ultimately will limit the number of regulatory requirements. By the end of fiscal year 2004/2005, the ministry expects to have reduced the regulatory burden by 2%.
