On the draft resolution of the Sejm amending the Standing Orders of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland

Summary/Abstract: The opinion refers to the draft resolution of the Sejm amending the Standing Orders of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, stating that within six months of the beginning of a new term of the Sejm, the Petition Committee may re-submit a bill realizing the aim of a petition submitted in the previous term. In the context of the provisions in force, along with the termination of the term of a Sejm, bills serving the realization of the aim of a petition submitted by the Committee to the Marshal of the Sejm are subject to the principle of discontinuation. Since proceedings related to the consideration of a petition are formally terminated, there is no possibility to re-submit the bills of the former term to the Marshal of the Sejm. The reviewed draft does not raise legal reservations. The solution included therein shall allow to balance the protection of the rights of the petition’s author on the one hand, and protection of values, which the principle of discontinuation of parliamentary works serves, on the other hand.
