- Background Information
The Registry, headed by the Registrar, is responsible for nonjudicial aspects of the administration and servicing of the Court, without prejudice to the functions and powers of the Prosecutor. This includes providing management and judicial support services to the Court, as well as those aspects of external relations and field operations falling within the purview of the Registry.
Accordingly, the Registry is composed of three Divisions: 1) Division of Management Services, 2) Division of Judicial Services, and 3) Division of External Operations. Each Division is headed by a Director, and the three Directors, together with the Chief of Office, support the Registrar through the Registry Management Team (RMT) in ensuring that the Registry fulfils its tasks effectively and efficiently.
The Registry’s Legal Office (RLO) is directly under the authority of the Registrar.
The Immediate Office of the Registrar (IOR) supports the Registrar in setting the Registry’s strategic objectives, overseeing inter-organ relations as well as in enhancing internal communication for the whole Court and driving the development of Court-wide policies.
The IOR is responsible for coordinating, and where required taking the lead in, the engagement with the Presidency, the OTP, the secretariats, and the other offices on matters of strategy and policy.
The IOR also acts as the operational focal point for the Registry’s Divisions, providing practical support to the Registrar with a view to ensuring, in a coordinated and effective manner, the overall managerial oversight and control of the Registry.
Given that the Registry is the largest and, in terms of its functions, most diverse organ of the Court, managerial and oversight functions are very important. In this regard, the IOR plays a key role in a number of areas, including the preparation of the Court’s budget, addressing staff related issues, facilitating the conclusion of agreements, and indeed in virtually all other fields of the Registry’s operations. At the same time, through the Registrar’s representational role, the IOR aims to widening the support for and the understanding of the mandate of the Registry and of the Court in the international arena.
