From the first days of the independence of the Republic of Uzbekistan, special attention was paid to the improvement of the activities of prosecutor's offices, as well as to the improvement of the qualifications of employees of prosecutor's offices.

For this purpose, on January 24, 1992, the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan No. 33 "On issues of organizing the activities of the prosecutor's office of the Republic of Uzbekistan" was adopted, and according to it, the problems of strengthening the legislation at the prosecutor's office of the Republic of Uzbekistan and the Prosecutor-Investigation Staff Training Center were established.
