According to regulations, the prosecutor general of the Supreme People's Procuracy is elected, relieved of duty, or dismissed by the National Assembly, upon the proposal of the President. Their term of office aligns with that of the National Assembly. When the National Assembly's term ends, the prosecutor general continues in their role until the new National Assembly elects a replacement. Deputy prosecutor generals of the Supreme People's Procuracy are appointed, relieved of duty, or removed by the President, based on the prosecutor general's recommendation.
