Abstract

In this article, the role of the Procurator of the Russian Federation in ensuring environmental law and order was determined, taking into account the requirements of the legislation for the purposes of the activity and appointment of the Institute of the Prosecutor's Office. It is concluded that the ensuring of law and order, particularly in environmental protection, is not a direct activity of the Prosecutor’s Office. Instead, its role is indirect and is carried out through the implementation of its functions, the most important of which is supervisory.
