PERFORMANCE INFORMATION Table 4: Annual Performance Report CLIENT, COMMUNITY, STAKEHOLDER AND SHAREHOLDER PROGRAMMES PER STRATEGY Project Project Description KPI/Measures Outputs Delivery Reason for Variance O1 Empowered clients and communities making informed choices about their legal rights and responsibilities S1 Delivering quality client-focused legal aid in criminal matters, particularly for the poor and vulnerable groups P1 To deliver quality criminal legal aid services that are client-focused, within budget constraints P1-1 Access to criminal legal aid services Coverage Targets: Average DC coverage: ≥83% Average RC coverage: ≥93% HC Coverage: All legal aid matters covered Legal aid provided to qualifying accused persons. Legal Aid SA Local Office court coverage plans are reviewed biannually to ensure coverage of all criminal courts. We had 86% planned coverage of DCs as at the end of the FY. A practitioner per court model was used in DCs. A practitioner per court model was used in RCs. Our RC planned coverage at the end of FY 2017/18 was 95%. A central court roll model was in place for HC coverage and representation was provided in all matters that required legal aid. Legal Aid SA, through our various delivery models, took on 371,202 criminal matters in FY 2017/18 of which 312,332 (84%) were DC matters; 54,450 (15%) were RC matters and 4,420 (1%) were HC matters. The total number of new matters for this FY was 3.8% lower than last year. Internal DC, RC and HC matters were 3%, 4.1% and 1.2% respectively lower than the previous year. Some of the reasons for this drop in demand for legal aid in criminal matters can be attributed to a decreasing number of cases being processed through the court system, as well as an increasing trend by the National Prosecuting Authority to divert cases away from the court system by using informal mediation and other Alternative Dispute Resolution options. 426,617 new matters were taken on for the financial year. Of this amount, 55,415 (13%) were civil matters and 371,202 (87%) were criminal matters. LEGAL AID SOUTH AFRICA INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 37
