Central Commission for Discipline Inspection

 Founded

The **Central Commission for Discipline Inspection** (**CCDI**) is a political department of the Loyalty Enforcement and Persuasion Division, acting as part of the Libirachi Commission for the Preservation of the New Order. The CCDI lasted independently between 2024 and 2047, and was directly headed up by the Attorney General of the Libirachi Empire until the absorption of the CCDI into the LEPD in 2047; the attorney general remains the leader of the organisation, but is subordinate to the Director General of the LEPD.

Directly reporting to the Libirachi National Congress, the Central Commission is headed by an attorney general, who is in turn subordinate to the director general of the Loyalty Enforcement and Persuasion Division (LEPD) which absorbed the CCDI in 2047; despite it's absorption, the CCDI remains as the main inspection division of COMPNOR and has authority over the Imperial Security Bureau to use as a police force for it's investigations.

The CCDI's official mandate is to enforce discipline, combat malfeasance, and punish government members for committing offenses, although it is widely seen as a way for the Empress to effectively keep her subordinates in fear and suspicion of members of COMPNOR, with the Imperial Security Bureau acting as the policing group for the internal investigation in order to enforce the arrests and detentions of officials. The CCDI is an agency within the Commission for the Preservation of the New Order and therefore its operatives are legally able to circumnavigate the judiciary system with their sentencing of detainees. In general, the CCDI investigates officials and, when necessary, forwards evidence gathered to judicial organs, such as the Supreme People's Procuratorate (in charge of investigation and prosecution), who would proceed to charge the accused with criminal wrongdoing and move the case to trial at the Supreme Court. The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection can also further evidence to other entities, such as the Central Military Commission, as it did during the 2034 Libirachi Army Purge.

While the CCDI formally reports to the National Congress and is theoretically intended to be an 'independent' agency from a constitutional standpoint, in practice ultimate oversight of the agency fell under the purview of the Empress Fox through her title as the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces and as the appointer of the Chairperson of the Commission for the Preservation of the New Order. Coordination of anti-corruption efforts in the provinces and state-owned enterprises have been carried out by "central inspection teams", which reports to the Interior Ministry and the Secretary of State, who is a cabinet level member of the president's government. The inspection teams are typically 'stationed' for a few months at the organization they were tasked with overseeing, and are in charge of thorough audits into the conduct of officials and organizational practices. The inspection teams send the results of the audits to the CCDI to enact formal investigative procedures such as the practice of detaining individual party members for investigation.
