The author finds the submitted proposal for amendments to be consistent with the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. The above‑mentioned proposal extends the competence of the Minister of Justice in the field of supervision of administrative activity of the common courts, which is however limited to new opportunities for obtaining information of the activities of the courts, and does not breach the balance of powers principle. In the author’s view, in the proposed Article 37f §1 (2) of the Law on Common Courts Organization a reservation should be added to explain that it is just about the exercise by the Minister’s of Justice actions “specified in the Act” that are indispensable to counter the irregularities in the administrative work of the courts, or to be applied in case of their occurrence. Moreover, he raises objections to the proposed Article 37f § 1 (3) of the above‑mentioned Act, according to which an external administrative supervision has to include “an analysis and assessment” of application of the law by the courts. That provision is in conflict with Article 8 (2) of the Act and lacks precision. According to the author, it would be advisable to supplement the proposed bill with an obligation to adjust the implementing provisions to the amended Act and to extend the period of vacatio legis.

The author claims that specific legal instruments in the so‑called external administrative supervision over the activities of the courts, which – according to the above‑mentioned bill – are to be granted to the Minister of Justice, do not enter into the realm of judicial independence, nor do they relate to the substance of the hearing of cases. Therefore, they are consistent with the constitutionally enshrined principle of judicial independence and the principle of division and balance between the legislative, executive and judicial powers.

The opinion relates to the compliance of a Deputy’s bill with the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. The author, following the presentation of the essence of the modifications proposed in the bill, argues that they cause significant extension of the powers of the Minister of Justice. This situation cannot be confused with the inconsistency of the proposed changes with the Constitution. Quoting the relevant judgment of the Constitutional Tribunal, the author shows that the administrative operations of the courts may be subject to external supervision by the Minister of Justice and, therefore, the purpose of the bill aimed to maintain administrative supervision over the activities of the courts and the granting of new powers to the minister cannot be questioned. The modifications proposed in the bill should be considered to be in conformity with the Constitution.

The considerations concern the issue of legality of replies of National Prosecutor to interpellations and Deputies questions on matters related to activities of the prosecution. A reply made by the National Prosecutor is possible in case when he was equipped with a special authorization of the Minister of Justice. It does satisfy the constitutional requirement for submitting these replies by members of the government. Replies provided by the National Prosecutor do not detract from the dignity of parliamentary institutions. The author shows that such replies are in full compliance with the Constitution.

The institution of a judicial assistant was established in order to relieve judges of all ranks from office administration duties as well as to ensure that they have proper support in examining the cases they have been entrusted with adjudicating. The author presents the requirements to be met by candidates for judicial assistants, specifies their duties and competence as well as analyses the Order of the Minister of Justice of 10 June 2014 on judicial assistant internship that will enable judicial assistants to prepare better for performing their duties and verify their fitness for this profession.

Instytucja asystenta sędziego została powołana w celu odciążenia sędziów wszystkich szczebli od czynności administracyjnych oraz zapewnienia im należytego wsparcia w rozpoznawaniu powierzonych im spraw. Autor przedstawia wymagania, jakie muszą spełniać kandydaci na asystentów sędziów, określa ich obowiązki i kompetencje, a także analizuje rozporządzenie Ministra Sprawiedliwości z dnia 10 czerwca 2014 r. w sprawie stażu asystenckiego, który umożliwi asystentom sędziów lepsze przygotowanie do wykonywania swoich obowiązków oraz weryfikację ich przydatności do wykonywania zawodu.

The functioning in practice of the independence of the public prosecutor’s office and individual prosecutors in Poland has been examined. First, the solutions adopted upon completion of the Round Table discussion are presented, taking into consideration the constitutional provisions then adopted. Next the European standards approved by European organisations and in particular the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe and the Venice Commission regarding assurance of the independence of the judiciary are discussed and confronted with the statutory solutions that have till date applied in Poland. A fair assessment of the functioning and the regime of the public prosecutor’s office has been made in the context of the implementation of the amendments of 2009 to the law on the public prosecutor’s office, showing that no further amendments to, or changes in the existing status quo are necessary. In the third part of the paper, the recent provisions adopted directly with regards to the independence of prosecutors and the public prosecutor’s office are presented, although their actual assessment will only be possible once the new law has come into force.

W artykule zaprezentowano zagadnienia związane z funkcjonowaniem niezależności prokuratora i prokuratury jako jednolitego organu. W ramach uwag wprowadzających wskazane zostały rozwiązania, jakie w obrębie niezależności wypracowane zostały po zakończeniu obrad Okrągłego Stołu wraz z uwzględnieniem przyjętych w tym zakresie zapisów konstytucyjnych. Ponadto omówiono standardy europejskie przyjęte przez organizacje europejskie, w szczególności Komitet Ministrów Rady Europy i Komisję Wenecką, w zakresie zapewnienia niezależności funkcjonowania organów wymiaru sprawiedliwości z równoczesną konfrontacją przyjętych dotychczas przez Polskę rozwiązań ustawowych. Rzetelnie przedstawiono funkcjonowanie i ustrój prokuratury w kontekście realizacji postulatu niezależności wraz z wprowadzeniem nowelizacji z 2009 r. i zmianą ustawy o prokuraturze. Prowadzone rozważania w sposób w miarę jednoznaczny wskazały na wątpliwość potrzeby wprowadzania zmian w do stanu prawnego wypracowanego w 2009 r., a w części III publikacji zwrócono uwagę na przyjęte w Prawie o prokuraturze zapisy pozostające w bezpośrednim związku z niezależnością prokuratury i prokuratorów. Przy czym, jak przyjęto w wniosku końcowym, realna ocena wprowadzonych ustawą Prawo o prokuraturze rozwiązań będzie mogła nastąpić z chwilą wejścia ustawy w życie.

The aim of this paper is to present the profession of the court bailiff in Poland. This paper also presents issues related to the rights of the Minister of Justice who may recall the court bailiff after he reaches 70 years of age. According to the authors, this law must not be regarded as unjust, as the court bailiff carries out his duties alone and he is not an employee, but a public official. Moreover, the same kind of regulation applies also to notaries and judges.

Artykuł dotyczy zawodu komornika i kwestii związanych z uprawnieniem Ministra Sprawiedliwości do odwołania go ze stanowiska po ukończeniu 70 roku życia. W ocenie autorów taki przepis nie jest dyskryminujący, egzekucje bowiem komornik musi prowadzić samodzielnie i nie jest on pracownikiem, a funkcjonariuszem publicznym. Ponadto jest to regulacja podobna do tych, które obowiązują notariuszy czy sędziów.
