Due to inadequate funding, the became fully operational only in October 2000.President Idriss Déby took advantage of the occasion provided by the swearing in office of the judges to reaffirm the impartiality and the independence of the Chadian legal system, and to signal that it was the first time Chad had ever been given such a high judiciary instance.
