The public prosecutor’s office at the Supreme Court of the Netherlands
The prosecutor's office at the Supreme Court is separate from the public prosecutor's office. At the head of the prosecutor's office is the attorney general. In addition, the prosecutor's office includes the deputy attorney general and the attorneys general. The members are independent of the government and parliament.
The attorneys general are independently responsible for the content of their conclusions. They work either in the civil law section or in the criminal or tax law section. In their work they are supported by staff of the scientific office.
