Investment in remote hearing technology should help to alleviate a backlog in the courts system, the Minister for Justice has said.
Tens of thousands court summonses are backlogged in the Irish court system because the pandemic prevented them from being dealt with.
Figures released to RTÉ s Morning Ireland show 95,000 summonses, which are legal documents that subpoena people to court, are stuck in the court system.
The Covid-19 pandemic led to the scheduling of summonses for hearing dates being stopped by the court service from March to the end of July.
The Courts Service said the delays happened because the numbers of people in court needed to be reduced because of Covid-19.
