At the mention of the prosecutor's office, most having association with the investigation, trial, verdict. Meanwhile, criminal investigations, supervision of preliminary investigations and the maintenance of public prosecution in the courts - only part of the prosecutor's office. The main function of prosecutors - that oversee the observance of laws, including the activities of legal persons. Here's how to determine the Federal Law "On Prosecutor's Office" in Article 1 of the function the prosecutor's office in this part: In order to ensure the rule of law, unity, and strengthen the rule of law, protection of the rights and freedoms of man and citizen, and legally protected interests of society and the state prosecutor's office carries out: oversight of the execution of laws by federal ministries, state committees, services and other federal executive authorities, representative ( legislative) and executive bodies of constituent entities, local authorities, military authorities, control authorities, their officials, governments and managers of commercial and non-profit organizations, as well as the conformity of laws issued by their legal acts; overseeing the rights and freedoms of man and citizen federal ministries, state committees, services and other federal executive authorities, representative (legislative) and executive bodies of constituent entities, local authorities, military authorities, control authorities, their officials, as well as government and business leaders and nonprofit organizations; As we can see the wording is so broad that the scope of prosecutorial supervision falls all the activities of an entity, ie prosecutors can check you for everything you want. It may be receiving workers' employment and their dismissal, the implementation of licensing activities (if you there is one), paying taxes, rent of state and municipal property, etc. Federal law "On Prosecution" imposes certain restrictions on the subject of prosecutorial inspections, settling in the art. Art. 21 and 26, that the prosecution is not a substitute for the oversight of other state bodies. However, in practice, this restriction has cost quite simple. The prosecutor simply instructs the relevant public authority to conduct such a test. The Prosecutor's Office such tests are called "joint" or "specialized expertise". The reason for the audit can serve as anything. Since Art. 21 of the Act specifies that law enforcement checks conducted on the basis of a prosecutor's office received information about the facts of violation of laws requiring action by the prosecutor. Source Information Act is not specified, so it could be anything, including publications in the media, of citizens and so In practice, the cause of a juridical person prosecutorial review are based on two grounds: The procedure for conducting inspections is different checking procedures in other organs. First, it provided procedural implementation start checking. Therefore, the prosecutor conducting the test, does not present you any orders (instructions, orders) on the early test. Your requirements for the Public Prosecutor to present an order (Order, etc.) to conduct the audit will be illegal. The only thing you can ask him - is to produce official identification. And, of course, to call the prosecutor and to clarify whether the test is conducted, or whether there is a "private initiative". Secondly, not installed under the current test. If the Federal Law "On protection of rights of legal persons and individual entrepreneurs in activities of state control (supervision) requires to specify in the order (order) verify and forbids to go beyond its limits, then the prosecutor's office employee, this restriction does not apply. Coming to you from a test on a question, he can check you in other ways. The only limitation is time and the desire of the prosecutors. Thirdly, the audit is not drawn up any act. If you test you will find any violation, then you will make a presentation about how to resolve violations of the law, or protest or vynesut order instituting administrative proceedings, or vynesut warning about the inadmissibility of violation of law. If you find nothing, then just silently away. Consider the powers of the prosecutor during the audit (data powers also possess assistants and senior assistants, conducting the test).
