In parallel with fast-moving social and commercial developments, Turkey has always sought for a better judicial system in order to provide up-to-date and more efficient regulations in line with the social and commercial needs of the country, especially during the last decade. In this regard, Turkish Ministry of Justice ("Ministry") published its first judicial reform strategy in 2009 which was subsequently followed by the second strategy in 2015. As a result of these strategies, there were several amendments brought into Turkish law such as introducing the Law on Protection of Personal Data, establishing the Human Rights Compensation Commission and adopting the mandatory mediation system regarding many civil lawsuits.
