Introduction

The Public Prosecutor's Office has a relevant initiative with respect to the group of persons who require support measures in view of the disability that affects them.

The second block of information refers to the cases in which the Public Prosecutor's Office takes these matters to court through the filing of the appropriate lawsuits and the sentences handed down in the proceedings initiated by the Public Prosecutor's Office.
