Summary/Abstract: Decentralization of the public administration means awarding to independent organizations and organs possibility of forming their lawful system in a sphere qualified by the act. Their aims are fixed in the act. The aim of chambers of commerce, as decentralized business organizations, is representing the economic interests of businessmen in their productive, commercial, architectural or service activity, particularly in relation to the public administration and to the external trade. The funds of chambers of commerce (mostly the membership fees and the business earnings) should be convergent with aims and tasks which they realize. It is conducive to employ proper group of experts prepared in a sphere of economic problems, appropriate material resources and information. The staff organs of chambers of commerce should be more specialized in consultative and advisory functions. They should offer specialistic servicing for businessmen, for instance: in schoolings and conferences (relating to: tax law, law of work and social insurance, gaining of public funds). The aims, tasks and functions of chambers of commerce still should be adapted to businessmen’s needs. The activity of chambers of commerce is supervised according to a criterion of a legality with an abiding feature of their autonomy. Rationalization of the lawful status of chambers of commerce will contribute to the increase of their importance of support of business development, Polish industry, trade and servicing. The efficiency of an activity of chambers of commerce is expressed in extent of accomplishment their aims, tasks and in securing the realization of businessmen’s needs.
