European Federal Ministry of Justice

The Ministry of Justice is the primary law enforcement agency of the European Federation. Encompassing the Department of Internal Affairs, Department of Policing, and the Department of Public Security, it embodies and enforces the rule of law in the EuF.
=Organization=
The Ministry itself is led by a Minister appointed by the High Chancellor of the Federation. The Minster appoints a Deputy Minister to manage each department. From there, the organization of the departments becomes more specialized to their particular roles.
==Departments==
===Department of Internal Affairs===
The Department of Internal Affairs is responsible for issuing EuF passports, administering citizenship applications and revocations, enforcing censorship, registering births, deaths and marriages, supplying support services to ministers, and advising the government on relevant policies and issues. The Department of Internal Affairs also manages state media services and foreign VIP visits. The Department of Internal Affairs also manages the fielding of detachments at state-owned enterprises of high-importance.
===Department of Policing===
The Department of Policing is responsible for tackling the task administering the day-to-day policing and civil protection of the European Federation's member states and 250 million citizens. All police officers in the Federation are under the employ of this department, serving as the most visible form of the Federation's presence in a country. This duty does not extend to enforcing borders within or around the EuF, however; that role is fulfilled by the Ministry of Defense's Federal Border Guards. The EuF goes through great pains to ensure that volunteer police forces are moved far and frequently from their place of enrollment to ensure that no local ties and sympathies get in the way of performing their duties.
===Department of Public Security===
The Department of Public Security is responsible for a variety of aspects of security, ranging from intelligence, counter-intelligence and suppression of anti-federalist political and social groups. Their work in this regard is considered distinct from the MoD's Federal Intelligence in that nominally their  efforts are focused inward on monitoring the Federal population, while the military's Federal Intelligence works with its eyes turned internationally. In practice this divide is rarely so clear, and there is some disagreement between the two entities over where the other's jurisdiction ends. In addition to this, the Department of Public Security is responsible for operating Federation prisons both political and criminal, providing security for important Federal politicians and business owners, and administering the Public Security Forces.
====Public Security Forces====
(See also: Military Equipment of the European Federation Public Security Forces)
The PSF is a a paramilitary force under the Department of Public Security charged with the primary mission of enforcing internal security, and the secondary mission of helping the regular army defend the Federation from foreign aggression. Although on the surface an elite civil response force, the PSF recruits from the same pool as units such as the SOE and acts with the full authority of the law. It was the PSF that bore the responsibility of carrying out the cleansing of clone infiltrators from the Federal population after their discovery, and as a result have fostered a dark reputation of not flinching to take whatever steps are deemed necessary to maintain authority.
