Par suite de la reconnaissance du besoin d'assurer une orientation fonctionnelle générale aux mandataires, un programme national des mandataires a été mis sur pied en 1996. Pour répondre aux demandes raisonnables visant l'obtention de services juridiques efficaces, efficients et économiques, le but ultime du Programme est de fournir au Ministère un cadre qui lui permet de renforcer sa capacité d'administrer et de gérer les activités juridiques des mandataires de manière à assurer la prestation de services juridiques de qualité et à endiguer les coûts connexes. 1, record 12, French, - Programme%20national%20des%20mandataires
