"We need to work to ensure the credibility of the judiciary which, in order to be recognized by all citizens, needs a profound reform process and also an ethical and cultural regeneration", said the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, in a letter to president of the ANM Giuseppe Santalucia for the conference 'The reasons of law'.
"The Judiciary - adds Mattarella - particularly in this difficult moment of his, must be able to carry out its function in a continuous interrelation with the socio-cultural context in which it operates because in our constitutional system, also for the judicial function, confrontation is vital constructive with the institutions of the Republic ".
"The independence of the judiciary - he continued - is a cornerstone of our democratic society and is based on the high level of professional preparation, which must be accompanied by the transparency of personal conduct and the comprehensibility of judicial action".
