The issue of new competences of the voivode in the light of the special act on helping Ukrainian citizens. Selected aspects

Summary/Abstract: On 24 February 2022. The Russian Federation launched an armed attack on the territory of Ukraine, resulting in an outbreak of war and a massive influx of Ukrainian citizens into Poland. Consequently, it became necessary to regulate refugee issues by law. This was done in the Law on Assistance to Citizens of Ukraine in Connection with the Armed Conflict on the Territory of that State, indicating the manner in which assistance is to be provided and the proceedings in cases concerning citizens of Ukraine whose stay is deemed legal under the above law. The broad powers granted by the Act to certain state entities may raise questions. The paper discusses the tasks and powers granted under the above Act to the provincial governor, analysing their scope and assessing their expediency and rationality. The article concludes with de lege ferenda proposals, the introduction of which would make it possible to improve the performance of tasks concerning the assistance of Ukrainian citizens by the provincial governor and to dispel doubts raised by certain provisions of the Act.
