W sprawie zastosowania zasady dyskontynuacji do interpelacji i zapytań poselskich złożonych w poprzedniej kadencji Sejmu

The opinion refers to the scope of application of the principle of discontinuing parliamentary works as regards organs of the executive obligated to provide answer to Deputies’ interpella- tions and questions as instruments of oversight vested in the parliament (the Sejm). The prin- ciple of discontinuing parliamentary works is a part of the Polish legal order as a norm of customary (parliamentary) law. The only exceptions therefrom result from the provisions of codi ed (universally or internally binding) law. No provision of the law presently in force excludes Deputies’ interpellations and questions therefrom, which is why the obligation of a member of the Council of Ministers to provide answer does not expire with the end of the term, regardless of whether the deadline to provide it falls before or after the rst sitting of the Sejm of the new term.
