Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to present the issue of the use by the episcopal conferences of obligatory norms of the Code of Canon Law within the purview of the munus docendi of the Church. The Code obliges or enables episcopal conferences to issue norms complementary to the CCL, among others regarding the Magisterium of the Church. In three cases, the Code obliges episcopal conferences to make arrange- ments regarding the munus docendi of the Church (can. 772 § 2, 788 § 3, 831 § 2). The author presented and evaluated the provisions of selected episcopal conferences in the field of the teaching task of the Church.
