Changes in the ministerial control over uniformed services
ZBN Analysis no. 3 (42) / 2019
28 February 2019
On 9 November 2017, the Sejm passed the law which significantly expanded the control of the Minister for Internal Affairs over subordinate services: the Police, the Border Guard, the State Protection Service and the State Fire Service. In addition to new control powers, the following institutions were established: the Internal Control Inspector (in Polish: Inspektor Nadzoru Wewnętrznego) and the Internal Control Office (in Polish: Biuro Nadzoru Wewnętrznego). Many of the statutory solutions regarding control of the ministry are unprecedented in the Polish legal system.
