Code of ethics - review of problems associated with codification of professional practice

The Principles of the Architect's Professional Ethics which were adopted on November 24, 2002, during the Extraordinary Conference of the Chamber of Architects proved to be so impermanent that a new Architect's Code of Professional Ethics, based on the draft of the code pre-pared by the Architects' Council of Europe, was adopted already on December 18, 2005. As it turned out later in practice, many of its provisions cause doubts among both the members of the Chamber of Architects commenting it and among judges of the disciplinary courts who should resolve disputes immediately. The necessity to interpret the rules included in the code was the reason for organizing trainings in the National Chamber.
