Permanence of the resolution of the Sejm on refusal to consent to subjection to criminal accountability (the so-called refusal to waive immunity referred to in Article 105 para. 2 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland)

Summary/Abstract: The resolution of the Sejm to refuse consent to bringing a Deputy to criminal accountability is notpermanent. Such a decision may be revoked at any time. The prosecutor (the Public ProsecutorGeneral) may request that consent to the subjection of a Deputy or a Senator to criminal account‑ability be reissued. The permanence of the decision to refuse is linked to the permanence of theruling to discontinue the proceedings following such a decision. The decision to refuse to waiveimmunity is also not binding (in any case) on the Sejm of the following term of office. In view of therisk of politicisation of the procedures related to the waiver of immunity, some follow-up reviewof the decision to refuse to waive immunity in successive parliamentary terms is in fact necessary.
