Good afternoon,  
  
This week the Tribunal is hosting 
  a four-day visit by the Court Management Section 
  of the War Crimes and Organised Crime Sections of 
  the Criminal and Appellate Divisions of the Court 
  of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The three person delegation, 
  led by the Head of the Section, is visiting the Tribunal's 
  Registry as part their preparations to receive cases 
  which may be transferred to the court pursuant to 
  Rule 11bis of the Tribunal's Rules. 
  
The aim of the visit is for the 
  delegates to learn as much as possible about the 
  individual 11bis cases; to discuss the logistics 
  of transferring files, evidence and persons, looking 
  at issues arising out of specific procedural or protective 
  orders that may have been issued in the proceedings.  
  
In particular, the delegation will 
  be familiarizing itself with the progress of these 
  cases to date, reviewing the public case files and 
  discussing with court officers and other court management 
  and Registry staff issues relating to the physical 
  and electronic storage of files and evidence. The 
  visit also includes meetings with the ICTY audio 
  visual team and discussions on the use of video link 
  capacities which have been set up at the Court in 
  Sarajevo.
