This article shows the basic European Union and national regulations with regard to international shipments of waste, such as the Resolution No. 1013/2006 and the Act of 2007 on international shipments of waste in Poland. Procedures which may decrease the negative infl uence of waste on the environment, especially during shipments of hazardous waste, play an important role in this area. For the observance of these procedures, the penal sanction system is useful because it prevents illegal activities in this area. However, an analysis of the statistics of the Supreme Chamber of Control and Police shows that the effectiveness of criminal instruments is not very high. This is evidenced by the low percentage of proceedings under Article 183 of the Penal Code as well as by the poor detection of offenders, and despite the increase in the number of convictions imposed by courts of general jurisdiction, criminal penalties are too lenient.

In the sacrament of reconciliation a penitent through the service of an authorized priest receives the forgiveness of sins through the mercy of God and consequently is reconciled with the Church. One of the fundamental elements of this sacrament is confession of sins in the presence of an authorized priest. Minister of this sacrament, a priest, needs to be delegated to administer this sacrament through the proper licensing. It is given through the power of the law itself or by the attachment to the office or alternatively by the designated church power. In the individual and integral confession penitent could confess the grave sin to the authorized priest which in the Church’ legislation has been defined as offense. In that situation not every priest who is able to listen to confession will have the capacity to give absolution due to the gravity of that sin. In order to release the penitent from the incurred censure the minister needs the adequate power which is given by the legislator in CIC/83 or by the competent power. The power of the confessor is subjected to some restrictions because he is unable give absolution from the Church’ punishments in all cases and release the penitent from all the sins committed. The source of these restrictions, is among others, the division in the Church’ punishments between censures and expiatory punishment and between punishments latae sententiae and ferendae sententiae as well as eventual declaration of the punishment latae sententiae. Moreover, another source of the restrictions applicable to the power of a confessor is the reservation made by the Holy See which applies to some excommunications latae sententiae. The common law this kind of power, with some limits, allocates to the following ministers of that sacrament: 1) bishop; 2) the ordinary; 3) canon penitentiary; 4) a chaplain of a hospital, prison or a sea trip; 5) any confessor in an emergency situation (casus urgens). Additionally the permission to give absolution in some limited range of internal sacramental punishments might be given by the Holy See and by the competent ordinary.

Financial malfeasance, both in the eld of administration and alienation of ecclesiastical goods might contribute to nancial losses, unnecessary scandal of the faithful, as well as the weakening of public trust. In order to prevent such malfeasance, the Church must seek eective methods which will allow to observe the canon law. e aim of this article was to show the penalties for the nancial malfeasance in the canonical legal system. Interestingly that ecclesiastical legislator does not use the concept of „nancial malfeasance”. However, we can nd nine examples of nancial malfeasances in Book VI of the 1983 Code. e following actions can be related to nancial malfeasances: 1) impeding the use of ecclesiastical goods (can.1375), 2) invalid alienation of ecclesiastical goods (can. 1377), 3) simony (can. 1380), 5) illegitimate prot from Mass oerings (can. 1385), 6) bribery (can. 1386), 7) abuse of authority and culpable negligence in performing act of ecclesiastical power or ministry or oce (can. 1389 §1-2), 8) production and use of false documents (can. 1391), 9) clerics carrying out commercial activities (can. 1392). For such oenses, the legislator determines penalties ferendae sententiae which may be imposed on the oender by judicial or administrative process. e legislator does not provide for penalties latae sententiae for nancial malfeasances. For simony and illegitimate prots from Mass oerings leg- islator provides for a penalty of imposing censure. In the case of simony is mandatory sanction (c. 1380), while for the oense of illegitimate prots from Mass oerings is optional one (can. 1385). It can be supposed that the most severe penal sanctions for nancial malfeasance is deprivation of oce that the judge may impose, depend- ing on the severity and harm done. is is an optional penal imposed for abusing of ecclesiastical power or an oce (can. 1389 § 1). In other cases, the ecclesiastical legislator provides for a just penalty ferendae sententiae. If penalties are indeterminate their imposition belongs to the Ordinary or judge. e particular law is to be observed which in place of indeterminate penalty ferendae sententiae it may establish a penalty determined or obli- gated (can. 1315 § 1). In accordance with can. 1317 particular law can not establish a penalty of dismissal from the clerical state.

The issue of celibacy obligations for clerics according to the Code of Canon Law of 1983 was taken up in the article. This problem contains the following items: 1) theological and legal basis for the celibacy obligation; 2) celibacy obligation in the Code of Canon Law of 1983; 3) celibacy in selected documents issued after the Code of Canon Law of 1983; 4) conclusion. Legislator in can. 277, binding the clerics to celibacy, indicates the source of this obligation, what is the candidate’s own will to the orders. According to the can. 277, celibacy means chastity sensu stricto (in a perfect way). Canon Law regulation concerning celibacy law has a long Church tradition. When cleric does not obey this obligation, penal sanctions are applied. Celibacy which is voluntarily accepted and experienced in a proper way is a spiritual reality sign, contributes to the salvation of souls which is the supreme law in the Church.

Al things considered, an attempt to solve this problem would be to postulate de lege ferenda creating a uniform system of anti-corruption legislation, introducing consistency in the regulations relating to corruption offenses. Dispersal of the regulations in different acts shows the weakness of Polish anti-corruption law and this is caused by legislative level. So there is a necessity for radical and fast improvement. It seems that the best way to achieve this goal is to create an act which would comprehensively fight corruption on each level of public authorities. This act should be aimed clearly at corruption offences and stigmatize them. The present anti-corruption Polish system of law is totally devoid of transparency and this causes that perpetrators measure the profitability of their acting by the size of the sanction. Penalty should be ruled relatively to the offence. There appears a necessity to create a project of one anti-corruption act. There is a necessity for a comprehensive strategy to fight corruption. Therefore, the role of the criminal law should be emphasized as the ultima ratio, which does not result in the disintegration of the system or violate its consistency.

Pope John Paul II in the Motu Proprio Sacramentorum sanctitatis tutela on 30 April 2001 promulgated the norms concerning the gravest crimes reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Such an intervention of the Church, as the Pope explained, was required by the necessity to protect the sanctity of the sacraments, especially those of the Most Holy Sacrament and Sacrifice of the Eucharist and Sacrament of Penance, as well as the need to keep the purity of morality in regard to the sixth commandment of the Decalogue. The Church, driven by pastoral concern and keeping in mind the ultimate goal of any Church law, which should be salus animarum, intervenes to prevent any violation in such serious and delicate matter as the sacraments. The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith issued on 18 May 2001 a letter to the Ordinaries and Hierarchs of the Roman Catholic Church describing the new crimes reserved to the Congregation and the procedural norms to be followed in these cases. Nine years after the promulgation of De gravioribus delictis norms, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith modified them, integrating and updating them in order to simplify the procedures, so that they could become more effective in solving contemporary problems. The modified norms concerning the crimes reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith were presented to Pope Benedict XVI who approved of them on 21 May 2010 and ordered to promulgate them. De delictis reservatis norms of 2010 consist of two parts: the first one, Normae substantiales, from article 1 to 7, and the second one including articles 8-31. The first part describes the competence of the Congregation, the crimes belonging to the delicta reservata category, and the norms concerning the prescription of actio criminalis in case of delicta reservata. The latter part defines the procedures in case of delicta reservata for which the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith is the Supreme Apostolic Tribunal. This article analyses only those of the crimes reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith which refer to the sacraments of the Eucharist. It should be stated that both existing and new norms concerning delicta graviora show great concern of the Church for the protection of the sacraments. On the other hand, which seems alarming, the necessity to update the norms protecting the sacraments indicates their relatively frequent violation. In the context of possible violations of dignified and valid administration of the sacraments, especially the Eucharist, the knowledge and right interpretation of the Church norms promulgated to protect these sacraments seem vital.

The Central Anticorruption Bureau as a special service of the Polish state, constitutes a new quality in public life. His actions may pose a threat to the constitutional rights of the individual. In order to monitor the process of protection of personal data in this institution, he was appointed in the Office of the Plenipotentiary for control of processing of personal data at the CBA. None of the Polish special services has such an institution.

W celu monitorowania procesu ochrony danych osobowych w tej instytucji powołany został w CBA pełnomocnik ds. kontroli przetwarzania danych osobowych. Żadna z polskich służb specjalnych nie posiada takiej instytucji.
