In 1922, the main document was adopted - the Regulation on Prosecutorial Supervision. In subsequent years, the document was supplemented with new paragraphs, and the functions of the prosecutor's office expanded.
Over the years of the oversight body, several major prosecutors have been replaced. Currently, the central authority has many qualified specialists. They control the strict observance of the laws of the country and comply with the legislation in the operational-search sphere.
