Inicjatywa ustawodawcza jako konstytucyjna kompetencja Prezydenta Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej
Implementation of the legislative initiative as a constitutional competence of the President of the Republic of Poland

Summary/Abstract: In the article, the author analyses the implementation of the legislative initiative by the Presidents of the Republic of Poland in the years 1990–2019. The publication presents the legal basis for the individual constitutional laws of 1989–1992 and the current Constitution of 2 April 1997, under which the Presidents of the Republic of Poland exercised their constitutional prerogatives, among which is legislative initiative. The article analyses the exercise of this competence by individual Presidents of the Republic of Poland taking into account the procedure of submitting the act for signature by the President. The aim of the article was to present the implementation of the presidents’ legislative initiative in the Third Republic, taking into account the tasks of the Chancellery of the President as an auxiliary body. This article deliberately omits the programme announcements of candidates applying for the office of the President, constituting a real implementation of the legislative initiative in the event of taking up the office of the President, including the period of cohabitation, as these issues require separate research and analysis. At the end of this article the author summarizes the implementation of the legislative initiative by individual Presidents of the Republic of Poland taking into account their activities over the last 29 years.
