The structure of the judicial system
The Netherlands is divided into 19 districts, each with its own court. Each district court is made up of a maximum of five sectors, which always include the administrative law, civil law, criminal law and sub-district law sector. Appeals against judgements passed by the district court in civil and criminal law cases can be lodged at the competent Court of Appeal (there are five Courts of Appeal in total); appeals against administrative law judgements at the competent specialised administrative law tribunal - the Administrative Jurisdiction Division of the Council of State, the Central Appeals Tribunal or the Trade and Industry Appeals Tribunal, also known as Administrative High Court for Trade and Industry, depending on the type of case. Appeals in cassation in civil, criminal and tax law cases are lodged at the Supreme Court of the Netherlands.

The tasks and composition of the Council for the Judiciary
The Council for the Judiciary is part of the judiciary system, but does not administer justice itself. It has taken over responsibility over a number of tasks from the Minister of Justice. These tasks are operational in nature and include the allocation of budgets, supervision of financial management, personnel policy, ICT and housing. The Council supports the courts in executing their tasks in these areas. Another central task of the Council is to promote quality within the judiciary system and to advise on new legislation which has implications for the administration of justice. The Council also acts as a spokesperson for the judiciary on both national and international levels.
