The main purpose of the article is to analyse the renewable energy sources labour market in the country based on the example of survey studies conducted in Lower Silesia in 2010 commissioned by the Marshal’s Office. The author took part in the discussed project as a member of the research team and is the co-author of the final publication. The study was conducted as part of a project by the Department of Economic Development of the Marshal’s Office of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship in 2010 entitled “Prognoses and analyses of the potential of the Lower Silesia to use renewable energy sources”. The article has analysed the following: employment in the RES sector, revenues and savings due to RES, and human resources. The author has also identified the pro-employment effects in the RES sector on the domestic and EU markets; she has also made prognoses for the demand for work in the RES sector. Study results show that the increase of employment in the sector resulting from the increase in production and installed power shall be related to biomass, solar power, and wind power technologies. From the data pertaining to employment in Lower Silesia one may conclude that the RES sector employs mostly specialists, managers, and physical labourers. Unmet demand for physical workers in the forestry and agricultural sectors is visible.

Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) strive to address important and topical concerns which attract media coverage and are of interest to the Parliament and citizens. Since 2013, the National Audit Office of the United Kingdom (NAO) has been carrying out ‘Investigations’. These are not investigations as defined in criminal law but rapid and responsive ‘engagements’ with data gathered and presented quickly. The topics of such investigations are specific, so that they can be developed fast (usually within three–four months) and described briefly (reports should not exceed 5,000 words). Investigations usually address issues that give rise to social concerns that things might not work properly, so their main addressees are not state bodies, but citizens, too. Unlike in financial and performance audit, investigations are facts only (without evaluations or recommendations), however they are written in a way that allows the readers to draw their own conclusions. In this article, the author discusses changes impacting on the NAO and its work supporting the House of Commons, and presents the concept and practice behind these. The role of such investigations is viewed in the context of other NAO activities, the topics covered and procedures adopted.

In his paper, the author undertook to discuss the subject of inquiries and trials in connection with crimes committed in the labour camps which were organized in Silesia after the Second World War, that is those located in the following places: Jaworzno, Łambinowice, Mysłowice and Świętochłowice. All the inquiries and trials were rich in many details and were also accompanied by elements of the political character. At first, the author analyzes the Labour Camp based in Łambinowice, which makes an unprecedented case as regards the number of inquiries and trials, as there were – in total – seven inquiries and three court trials carried out in Poland and in the Federal Republic of Germany. The first inquiry was conducted as early as in the years 1945–1947, and the last trial of the former commander of the camp – in the years 2001–2006. In the case of the other three camps, inquiries were instigated in Poland after the transformations of the socio-political system of 1989. They lasted, with shorter or longer intervals, until 2011, that is for over 20 years. All of them have been discontinued, in contrast to those run in the FRG, where two of the inquiries and trials ended in two prison sentences for former the so-called German camp functionaries. The discontinuation of the trials in Poland resulted, in many cases, in lodging complaints by the wronged, which started a complicated appellate procedure and – in turn – considerably prolonged the prosecutor’s procedure. In the end, the author forms precise conclusions that follow from the inquiries and trials presented in the paper, poses certain questions and postulates the need of further studies into this problem area.
