Regulacja jako nowa funkcja współczesnej administracji publicznej w Polsce
Regulation as the new function of contemporary public administration in poland

Summary/Abstract: The subject of the study was defining legal and administrative aspect of regulation as the new function of contemporary public administration and the structural position of the regulatory bodies in the structure of the Polish public administration. The starting point to present particular regulatory systems existing on the so called regulated markets (i.e. rail transport market, fuel and energy market as well as telecommunication and post market) was the analysis of the term regulation. There was the question of the reasons for and aim of introducing the regulations to the economy. It is necessary that public administration is active on specified areas so that the aim (or aims) is met. Actions of the regulatory bodies were explained by using both the method of describing their areas of activity and the description and analysis of action forms. Difficulties to specify the content of the regulatory function unambiguously were the reason why the usage of research instrument in the form of legal con- trol system to specify legal relations between regulatory body and participants of particular market as well as between bodies regulating particular market was suggested. The legal relations as a whole were defined as regulatory control system. In the summary I presented the conclusion saying that regulation is the new function of the contemporary public administration in Poland.
