Ocena skutków prawnych projektowanych regulacji dedykowanych przeciwdziałaniu korupcji w życiu publicznym
Impact assessment of the proposed regulations dedicated to counteracting corruption in public life

Summary/Abstract: The Bill is an attempt to provide state authorities with effective instruments to counteract corruption in public life, but the detailed legislative proposals contained therein may hinder the full implementation of this assumption. Among others the category of corruption offenses was drafted in a selective way, linking the tightening of the punishment policy with the conviction for only some of them. Failure to include some corruption offenses in the Bill will lead to an unjustified privileging of the policy of punishing corrupt practices in certain areas of public and economic life. The author also referred to some of the proposals to introduce employment bans, pointing out that they would be superfluous to the applicable regulations of the Criminal Code, as well as they would lead to consequences which would be difficult to accept from the perspective of seeking a penalty adequate to the committed prohibited act, the real severity of sanctions and the principle of equal punishment.
