In June 2011 the ENCJ General Assembly decided to organise a series of regional timeliness seminars. The aim of the seminars is to increase awareness for the issue of Timeliness, to deepen the understanding of causes and remedies, and to discuss the recommendations and the cooperation between stakeholders, and thus to further the implementation of the recommendations. It was deemed appropriate to organise the seminars with participants from countries within a region with comparable culture and legal traditions. Representatives of all stakeholders are invited. 

The first seminar took place in April 2013 (hosted by the Polish National Judicial Council and involved Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Norway and Sweden.
