Former magistrate Barbara Cooke-Alleyne is the new Registrar of the Supreme Court.

And among her priorities is to ensure that that branch of the judicial system improves its service delivery.

Cooke-Alleyne, who has spent 15 years in the public service, the last 12 as a magistrate, took up the position from yesterday.

She told the DAILY NATION that the post and the agencies which fell within its purview affected the lives of all Barbadians.

“And as such it is an obligation which I undertake with due regard of its significance and import. I hope to build on the hard work of my predecessors and craft improved initiatives to improve the service delivered by the Registry,” she said. (AC)
