A representative of the legislative initiative committee of citizens shall have the right to make amendments to a bill prepared and filed by this committee. This interpretation of Article 14 paragraph 2 of the Act, in conjunction with Article 36 paragraph 4 of the Standing Orders of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, implements – to the fullest –the applicant’s right to introduce amendments to a bill under Article 119 Paragraph 2 of the Constitution. That right is, however, limited by a statutory requirement to represent the committee, and therefore amendments going beyond the scope of authorization, which may have the form of a „general power of attorney” or specific suggestions, guidelines or prohibitions, must be regarded as invalid.
