Summary
A judge has slammed the chronic delays in transporting prisoners to court, calling it an unacceptable breakdown in the justice system. With waits stretching from ten minutes to over an hour, court sessions are routinely disrupted, costing taxpayers dearly and eroding public trust. An opposition senator is now backing her up, warning that these delays waste critical resources and delay justice for victims and defendants alike. The senator demands urgent reforms — better coordination between prisons, transport, and courts — to fix the root causes and ensure the system operates fairly and efficiently for everyone.
