Minister Message
It is indeed a great pleasure to welcome you all to browse through the official internet website of the Department of Justice & Attorney General of Papua New Guinea.
In this medium, communication, education and public awareness are essential elements for the successful and effective implementation of the department’s core functions to deliver legal and justice services to the Government and people of Papua New Guinea on a timely fashion.
It must be further recognised that communication, education and public awareness play a pivotal role in the implementation of the department’s corporate plan and major policies of government.
Hence, I would like to congratulate the Information Management Branch of DJAG and Masalai for being able to develop this website for the department and Ministry of Justice Ministry. I hope this website will be kept updated frequently, and I do hope in future this website will become one of the best websites in Papua New Guinea with plenty of information on legal and justice issues.
I thank the Secretary, Dr Lawrence Kalinoe for the wonderful initiative culminating in the development of the Internet website.

Secretary Message
We are excited to announce the launch of our new website. This has been designed at giving browsers faster and more user-friendly access to the key information on the legal offices and the legal and justice services provided by the department.In today’s market consumers of any product are looking to the web for their first impression of a government-owned department and what they offer. Hence, the quality of our web presence is an absolutely crucial aspect of our core statutory and functional responsibilities and constitutional functions.
To have a stand-alone website now compliments our growth and development as it is often the first introduction to the department for many potential new browsers.
Having our own website coincides with a period of expansion for us as a department with the Solicitor General’s Office opening up branches in selected centres nationwide in 2011, commencing with Goroka, in the Eastern Highlands Province.
The new website will provide department information and increasingly ‘e-enabled’ services to all our customers into the future.
The launch of our new website represents only one step towards developing our vision for the delivery of electronic legal and justice services to the government and its peoples in Papua New Guinea.
What we are ultimately aiming to do is use new ICT technologies, such as the Internet, to e-enable our citizens and those in similar jurisdictions in the Commonwealth, in their future dealings with the Department.
I am sure you will all agree that our ambitious objectives for electronic legal and justice services delivery will greatly enhance our citizens’ interface with the Department, and I take this opportunity now to thank you everyone involved in the design and population of content for your excellent work in achieving this goal.
We want to have a very friendly and highly interactive website so that we use this medium for dissemination of information on all matters and areas of our activities and operations.
That is the future, now for the present.
