СТРУКТУРА АДМІНІСТРАТИВНО-ПРАВОВОГО СТАТУСУ ПРОКУРОРА В УКРАЇНІ

Abstract

The article analyzes the scientific approaches to the structure of the administrative and legal status of the prosecutor. Reforming the prosecutor’s office system and significantly narrowing its tasks and functional powers necessitate research by scholars on the legal status of the prosecutor today. A number of original author’s positions on this problem are offered. It is stated that improving the administrative and legal status of the prosecutor as a direct subject of tasks and functions of the state involves increasing the level of legal regulation of certain types of human rights functions, expanding the powers of the prosecutor in this area, while increasing his responsibility. It is important to achieve a legal balance - on the one hand, giving the prosecutor powers sufficient for the effective implementation of the functions provided by law, and on the other - the exclusion of opportunities for abuse of these powers. Although at the present stage it is too early to assess the impact of the new prosecutorial legislation on the level of law and order, it is impossible to form a European-style public prosecution body designed to replace the archaic model of the Soviet prosecutor’s office without these radical legislative and institutional changes.
