This Regional Law establishes the modalities of organization and performance of public control over state and local self-government bodies as a form of public participation. Public control shall be performed by advisory councils attached to regional executive and legislative bodies. Public inspections and public control groups shall also perform public control with a view of ensuring enforcement of legislation, protection of human rights and freedoms and consideration of public interest in some social spheres in coordination with state bodies. Public control shall be performed in the following forms: (a) public monitoring; (b) public inspection; (c) public audit/expertise; (d) public discussion; and (e) public hearing.
