The term procurator derives from the Latin and generally means one who has care of something in place of another. Hence, in canon law, a procurator acts as a sort of agent for a party in a case (as distinguished from an advocate or lawyer), and in some institutions like colleges and seminaries the procurator is effectively the business, supply, buildings, and/or grounds manager. Latin is an ancient Indo-European language originally spoken in Latium, the region immediately surrounding Rome. ...

The national procurator, as the deputy of the procurator general, and the other deputies of the procurator general are appointed by the prime minister from among the procurators in the national office on a motion by the procurator general.
Procurators can be relieved of their duties by the procurator general at their own request or dismissed from office by a ruling of one of the procuracy's disciplinary committees.
Procurators also enjoy immunity—they cannot be prosecuted by a court of law or through administrative processes without the permission of the appropriate disciplinary committee, and they cannot be detained without the permission of their superiors.
