and expulsion are now regarded as criminal sanctions that will be handed down by the court for a specific offence. Apart from that, the draft law "on preventive measures against individuals who pose a threat to .the security of society", has been submitted to the People's Assembly for consideration and approval; the draft bill does away with some of the measures formerly included in the law on deportation and expulsion as administrative measures. 25. Preventive measures are taken against individuals conducting activities which, although not constituting a criminal offence, are incompatible with good conduct and social morality, against people who tend to commit criminal acts, who live entirely or partly on unlawful income, who encourage prostitution, the corruption of children or gambling, who refuse to perform socially useful work or who are members of criminal groups and associations. 26. These measures may be taken against persons over the age of 18. 27. Preventive measures will be awarded only by a court, in regular and prompt proceedings, guaranteeing the accused person the right to a defence counsel and the right to lodge a complaint. 28. The ninth and tenth plenums of the Party's Central Committee also adopted decisions on the upgrading of judicial bodies and guarantees of the legal defence of citizens.E/CN.4/1991/68 E/CN.4/Sub.2/1990/49 page 6 29. In order to strengthen socialist legality, as well as the assistance to and supervision of the courts of zones and districts, to bring about an improvement in the quality of legal activity and to carry out more skilled and systematic work on the continuing improvement of legislation, a draft law has been prepared on the establishment of the Ministry of Justice. It will enable the Council of Ministers to cope better with the problems of justice and a series of other issues related to legal relations in our country.
