French Ministry of Justice building on Place Vendome in Paris
The French Minister of Justice ( French Ministre de la Justice ) is a ministerial post in the Government of France, which heads the French Ministry of Justice and is also the curator of the press ( French Garde de Sceaux ). The headquarters of the ministry is located in Paris , on Place Vendome . [one]
Functions and Prerogatives of the Minister
The functions of the minister include: [2]
- control over the creation, maintenance and administration of ships;
- participation as vice-chairman of the judicial council (which oversees judicial execution and advises on prosecutorial execution);
- supervision of the prosecutor's office;
- direct corrections and the penitentiary system ;
- proposing legislation affecting civil or criminal law or procedures.
The current topic of controversy is the degree of control that the Minister of Justice should have on the prosecutor. Although it would be desirable that the prosecution should not follow the whims of the executive branch, especially in cases involving politicians ( corruption , etc.), some argue that the prosecutor’s office is responsible for ensuring that no one goes astray.
The Minister of Justice also holds the ceremonial office of the Keeper of the Seal and, like, is the Keeper of the Great Seal of France.
The current Minister of Justice Nicole Bellube , since June 21, 2017 .
