In future, laws should be designed with digital technology in mind from the outset, formulated in a practical manner and made easy to implement. The digital check and the strengthening of the National Regulatory Council underline the political ambition to shape legislation in line with digital infrastructures and enforcement realities – also and especially in the field of justice. In this session, Anna Sinell, Head of Administrative Digitisation Instruments at DigitalService, together with Brigitte Zypries, Congress President of the Digital Justice Summit, Matthias Schmid, Ministerial Director at the BMJV, and Malte Spitz, member of the National Regulatory Control Council, will discuss questions such as how the digital check can be systematically integrated into the legislative process and what role the judiciary can play in identifying and reducing legal complexity.

Digitalisation is not an end in itself – its impact must be measurable and controllable. But how can progress in the digitisation of the justice system be quantified in concrete terms? Which key performance indicators reflect not only activity, but real change? As part of a mini barcamp with Stephanie Kaiser, Chief Product Officer at DigitalService, and Alexander Schmid, Chief Digital Officer at the Federal Chamber of Notaries, practical key figures for progress, impact and usage will be developed together – e.g. on the duration of proceedings, the use of digital access or the quality of digital services from the perspective of the judiciary and citizens.
