The EU expressed its support for the establishment of another justice zone or areas for local justice sector actors such as police, public attorneys, and judges in Tagaytay City that will focus on economic development and tourism. | FArgosinoINQ
The Tagaytay City Justice Zone is the second designated area with a thematic focus on economic development and tourism after Zamboanga City and the 11th justice zone in the country aside from the ones in Quezon City, Cebu, Angeles, Davao, Bacolod, Naga, Calamba, Balanga, Baguio, Zamboanga.
“Tagaytay is the most popular tourist destination near Metro Manila. City authorities see the setting up this justice zone as a means to help the city’s economic development by addressing criminal justice issues,” the EU said. “This could include fast-tracking cases of a criminal nature involving tourists, establishing a Tourist Police Unit and Foreign Information and Assistance Desk in key tourist spots,” it added.
Aside from Wagner, also present during the launch were key actors of the JSCC — Supreme Court Associate Justice Maria Filomena Singh, Department of Justice Undersecretary Raul Vasquez, and Department of Interior and Local Government Undersecretary Lord Villanueva.Since 2014, the EU said the justice sector coordination has been aiming to improve efficiency in the administration of criminal justice by ensuring that all agencies and institutions involved work together effectively.
