The Cabinet of Ministers has approved an allocation of Rs. 150 million for the proposed e-Court Project, aimed at expanding a unified digital platform across Sri Lanka’s judicial system.

The project seeks to roll out the existing digital platform currently used by the Supreme Court to all courts islandwide, including the Court of Appeal, the Judicial Service Commission and the Institute of Judges. The initiative is intended to improve efficiency, transparency and access to justice within the judicial system.

The e-Court Project will also facilitate the establishment of a national judicial data network, helping to address long-standing issues such as case delays, procedural inefficiencies and limited data transparency.

The funding was approved in line with the International Monetary Fund’s Reform Agenda 2026–2030 Public Investment Programme and the Clean Sri Lanka Strategy. The Rs. 150 million allocation will be provided to the Judicial Service Commission from funds set aside under the Clean Sri Lanka Project to ensure the effective implementation of the initiative.
