THE PRINCIPLES OF LEGISLATION TECHNIQUE IN POLAND AND EUROPEAN UNIONThis paper is acomplex summary of problematic principles of legislation technique. European law-making has abig meaning in Polish law. These dual systems affect each other. The principles of legislative techniques in Poland are regulated by the Regulation of the Prime Minister, but not always. Sometimes they were set in abook form. The rules of legislative technique are of great importance for understanding of legislation and the entire legal system. Thanks to them the legislators know what editorial units used in individual acts. Understanding them often allows for better application of the law. European Union Law has its own standards and its own legislative rules. Correlation of Polish law with the European reveals itself even when it is necessary to transpose the EU directives. The method and quality of establishing law in the European Union somehow directly affect the rights in Poland. Therefore,  distinguish between the two legal systems and learn how to use them. This paper describes the importance of the principles of correct legislation for both the national agenda, as well as for the European law. It identifies the main concepts. It allows the reader to explore correlations principles of legislative techniques in the EU and Poland.

The article is focused on the effect of the establishment and application the European Union law in Poland immediately after 2004. By becoming the law binding in Poland (and other member states of the EU), the EU law effected significant changes in the sphere of law creation and application. Traditionally, in the national legal order, the law of the highest force is the constitution, while in accordance with the EU legal order, the regulations of the European law are superior in their application in the territory of the member states, including the regulations of the constitution. The present analysis explains how the dilemma of the simultaneous superiority of the regulations of the constitution and the regulations of the EU law was solved in Poland and what importance is attributed to the concept of favourable interpretation of the national law and the EU law. The present paper poses the hypothesis that the model of reconciling the regulations of the Polish law and the regulations of the European law developed in Poland immediately after 2004 was correctly established. It contributes well to Poland meeting international obligations, at the same time respecting the superior position of the constitution.

This introductory chapter provides an overview of the European Union, which is based on two treaties: the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). The TEU contains the general provisions defining the EU, while the TFEU contains the specific provisions with regard to the EU institutions and policies. The EU Treaties are treaties whose substance is mainly made up from institutional provisions that are to provide the framework for subsequent secondary law. The policy areas in which the EU can act are thereby set out in Parts III and V of the TFEU. In order to legislate within one of these policy areas, the Union must have a legislative competence. These competences will constitute the principal legislative fountain for a particular part of European Union law. This book then analyses the creation, enforcement, and substance of European law.

Abstract The European Union and its member-states’ involvement in the economic sphere, manifesting itself in establishing the rules of entrepreneurs’ functioning – their responsibilities and entitlements – requires a precise determination of the addressees of these standards. Proper identification of an entrepreneur is a condition of proper legislation, interpretation, application, control and execution of the law. In this context it is surprising that understanding the term entrepreneur in Polish law and in EU law is not the same, and divergences and differences in identification are fundamental. This fact formed the objective of this article. It is aimed at pointing at key differences in the identification of an entrepreneur between Polish and EU law, explaining the reasons for different concepts, and also the answer to the question: May Poland, as an EU member-state, identify the entrepreneur in a different way than the EU?

Fiscal policy constitutes – within the state's economic policy – a system by means of which the taxes and duties owed to the country's consolidated budget are established and collected. Taking into account the role fiscal policy has been playing since Romania's admission in the European Union, one of the goals ceaselessly looked for is its adapting to the international community's acquis through the implementation of the European directives in our context. The EU directives make reference to direct taxes: dividend tax, interest income tax, assets transfer, shares exchange, income taxation for the non-residents, and so on, along with the indirect taxes: value-added tax, excise duties, etc. The paper approaches the main provisions within the contents of the European directives as well as the means of their implementation in the Romanian fiscal legislation regarding various types of taxes. The implementation of the European directives has been simultaneous with the establishing of measures concerning fiscal fraud prevention, frauds liable to have a negative impact on the state's consolidated budget.

The European Commission's “Fit for 55” package of July 2021 provides for a significant increase in renewable energy and energy efficiency targets in the European Union (EU). However, the EU’s competences in the energy sector are severely limited and subject to sovereignty. Already in 2018, the EU adopted a Governance Regulation that provides for a hardening of the otherwise only soft governance in the areas of renewable energies and energy efficiency due to the lack of European competences. It is intended to ensure that the Commission's recommendations for improving national energy and climate plans are implemented by the member states. An analysis of the quality of implementation of these recommendations now shows that this has a positive effect in areas with harder soft governance but still needs improvement. Increasing the targets of regulatory action cannot be successful without revising the Governance Regulation and hardening soft governance along with it. Otherwise, the EU is not fit for its 55 percent target in 2030.


Since the 1957 Rome Treaty, the European Union has changed dramatically - in terms of its composition, scope and depth. Originally established by six Western European States, the EU today has 28 Members and covers almost the entire European continent; and while initially confined to establishing a "common market", the EU has come to influence all areas of political, economic and social life. In parallel with this enormous geographic and thematic expansion, the constitutional and legislative principles underpinning the European Union have constantly evolved. This three-volume study aims to provide an authoritative academic treatment of European Union law. Written by leading scholars and practitioners, each chapter offers a comprehensive and critical assessment of the state of the law. Doctrinal in presentation, each volume nonetheless tries to present a broader historical and comparative perspective. Volume I provides an analysis of the constitutional principles governing the European Union. It covers the history of the EU, the constitutional foundations, the institutional framework, legislative and executive governance, judicial protection, and external relations. Volume II explores the structure of the internal market, while Volume III finally analyses the internal and external substantive policies of the EU.

In determining the correct procedure for ratification of Council Decision 2020/2053, the author has analysed the provisions of Polish law and European Union law. In the author’s opinion, on the basis of the Council Decision there is no transfer of powers of state authorities within the meaning of Article 90 of the Constitution. Therefore, in Polish conditions this will mean the requirement of the application of the so-called “large” ratification, referred to in Article 89 para. 1 of the Constitution. Such a solution is supported both by the substantive content of the provisions contained in Council Decision 2020/2053, the previous practice of ratifying Council Decisions on the system of own resources of the EU, as well as the order to apply a “pro-EU” interpretation.

This chapter describes the direct enforcement of European law in the European Courts. The judicial competences of the European Courts are enumerated in the section of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) dealing with the Court of Justice of the European Union. The chapter discusses four classes of judicial actions. The first class is typically labelled an ‘enforcement action’ in the strict sense of the term. This action is set out in Articles 258 and 259 TFEU and concerns the failure of a Member State to act in accordance with European law. The three remaining actions ‘enforce’ the European Treaties against the EU itself. These actions can be brought for a failure to act, for judicial review, and for damages.
