DZIAŁANIA PODEJMOWANE PRZEZ ADMINISTRACJĘ RZĄDOWĄ W OKRESIE PANDEMII COVID-19
ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE GOVERMENT ADMINISTRATION DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Summary/Abstract: The introduction of the state of epidemic emergency, and then the state of the epidemic in March 2020, was a new challenge for everyone. Public administration bodies have been obliged to take actions related to ensuring public safety in a country that has been threatened with the spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus. The Council of Ministers did not decide to introduce a state of emergency – a state of natural disaster, despite the occurrence of situations at various times justifying such a state. On the other hand, restrictions on the rights and freedoms of citizens, prohibitions and orders of specific behavior were introduced and this was done by means of regulations, without a legal basis. Many decisions of administrative courts and common courts testify to the violations in this respect. Importantly, many states introduced states of emergency at various times. On the other hand, the Council of Ministers adopted the concept of the so-called a hybrid emergency, not known by law. The above issues became the subject of the issues presented in the article.
