Regulatory Framework and Drafting Process
The measure was approved in December 2022 by the National Assembly of People’s Power, published in the Official Gazette in January 2023, and entered into force on May 10 of that year. Its implementing regulations were issued in October 2023 via Presidential Decree No. 679, the result of a collaborative drafting process involving various bodies, agencies, entities, and experts, as well as contributions from lawmakers.
The development of both measures was the result of collective effort—enriched by exchanges and consultations with bodies, agencies, entities, and experts—and the decisive contribution of lawmakers.
The assessment covered the fulfillment of the Attorney General’s Office’s constitutional mission: overseeing criminal investigations, exercising public criminal action, and supervising legality, alongside results regarding public service, the protection of vulnerable individuals, and digital transformation.
Reported indicators highlighted over 11,000 training activities, 23,597 inspections of penitentiary facilities, and the implementation of the Electronic Digital Case File system, alongside science, technology, and innovation projects.

Progress Made and Shortcomings Acknowledged
The Attorney General’s Office noted progress in criminal proceedings, jurisdictional matters, and public communication, while acknowledging outstanding shortcomings—such as provisions regarding liability for damages and international legal cooperation.
Plans for 2026 include strengthening human capital management, consolidating joint actions with the Ministry of the Interior, finalizing the Quality Management System, and advancing digital transformation and artificial intelligence initiatives.
The Office of the Attorney General of the Republic, through the Attorney General, reports to the National Assembly of People’s Power and the President of the Republic with the frequency and in the manner established by law. This practice is grounded in the principles of periodicity, publicity, objectivity, and transparency.
From this, we can conclude that the Office of the Attorney General is a body of vital importance to the proper functioning of the State and Cuban society within the constitutional framework; alongside its mandate to represent the State in criminal investigations, it also bears the responsibility of safeguarding the rights and guarantees of all citizens and ensuring compliance with the law—an immense social mandate that prosecutors carry out with ethics and objectivity.
