10 years of the Polish Act on Lobbying Activity – 10 Years of Disappointments
Journal Title: Studia Iuridica - Year 2016, Vol 68, Issue
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present the main solutions adopted in Polish act of July 7, 2005 on lobbying activity in the law-making process, with particular emphasis on the dysfunctions of this regulation. Despite the hopes of reducing corruption in public life and ensuring the transparency of the decision-making process, the discussed act deserves a critical evaluation. Among the many weaknesses, some must be especially identified: the act ignores the possibility of lobbies influencing the law-making by the President, the parliament bodies, the National Broadcasting Council and the decision-making bodies of local self-government and local government administration bodies; public hearing procedure; defective definition of lobbying activity and the size of penalties for violation of the lobbying regulations. Moreover, actual effects of the act were presented, which prove the thesis that Polish lobbying act can be assessed as “apparent regulation”.<br/><br/>
