104 Trial Monitoring: A Reference Manual for Practitioners when drafting other internal reports or public reports, as necessary.154 Managers should also evaluate the usefulness of the internal reporting structure at reasonable intervals, to ensure that aims are being met as foreseen. 11.5.2 Other reporting by monitors Monitors may also be required to provide secondary reporting to support the process of compiling and synthesizing information. This may be particularly helpful in programmes that employ fewer supervisory staff. Since monitors may often be assigned to a particular region or court, monthly reporting offers monitors an avenue by which to provide an overview of practices and issues observed in their court or region. This enables them to analyze issues unrelated to a specific case, such as general conditions related to a monitored court, including scheduling, delays, and equipment or facility issues and practices. Such secondary reporting may help identify what practices are confined to a particular judge or case, and what practices may be endemic to an entire court or system. It also permits more detailed treatment of serious violations or problems that occur systematically. From a capacity-building perspective, such reporting also provides an opportunity for monitors to perform legal writing and analysis outside the structured case-reporting format. This separate type of secondary internal reporting by monitors can be especially valuable in instances where questionnaires are employed as the basic means to convey concerns about hearings, or where regular reporting templates do not provide space to monitors to offer additional analysis of themes. 154  The LSMS in Kosovo provides an example of this approach. Court monitors at the regional offices send to the legal analysts and the chief of the LSMS on a weekly basis reports and tracking memos, which are then researched and analyzed by the legal analysts. See Annex IV.B. Legal analysts draft bi-monthly reports, which are disseminated to courts, prosecutors and lawyers. The reports are also used as a resource in drafting longer periodic public reports. In this way, bi-monthly reporting not only enables the ongoing synthesis of information for public reports, but also provides a basis to report regularly to local authorities.
