The article will assess whether the new regulations will effectively ensure the protective function, and if so, to what level, and whether – and if so, to what extent – the new regulation will remove evident defects of the currently binding Nature Protection Act. The discussion will first refer to the wording of the regulations, and then the criticism of these solutions will be carried out with simultaneous formulation of de lege ferenda conclusions. The author’s intention is to develop the subject in a series of articles. This approach is justified by the comprehensive nature of the issues regulated by the Act. The first article, hereby submitted to you, explains selected problems concerning the creation of national parks, legal regime of this form of protection and the system of exemption from prohibitions. The results of the presented analysis have not been presented to readers so far and cover only Polish law.

Pursuant to the aforementioned amendment, the legislator introduced into the legal system the institution of a “ person who performs paid work”, which includes both an employee within the meaning of Article 2 of the Labour Code and a person providing work for remuneration on a basis other than employment relationship (so-called non-employee). The analysis of the introduced provisions leads to the conclusion that the legislator focused on providing non-employees with substantive legal rights, such as, among others, the right of union coalition. However, in my opinion, the legislator neglected analogous scrupulosity in the area of procedural rights of non-employees, which led to a situation in which non-employees are partially entitled to the same substantive rights as employees, but do not have analogous procedural rights. In my view, this constitutes a flagrant omission on the part of the legislator which, as a consequence, leads to legal uncertainty and a lack of effectiveness of the protection introduced for non-employees.","PeriodicalId":158454,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Administracji i Prawa","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116143858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article also discusses development of joint physical custody in the United States considered to be the birthplace of this institution.

This institution, concisely regulated in art. 127a of the Code of Administrative Procedure, from the moment it becomes effective, it raises a number of interpretation doubts. They refer not only to the parties’ declaration of waiver of the above-mentioned right, but also the deadline for its submission or the possibility of withdrawing it before the deadline for appeal. These doubts led to divergent views in the doctrine and judicature. This, in turn, creates a state of legal uncertainty for the parties to the proceedings. The administrative judiciary is trying to rectify this, a good example of which is the voted judgment. In this judgment it was rightly argued that if the mental development or health condition indicates that the information obtained by a party about the possibility and consequences of waiving the right to appeal did not arrive in an appropriate manner, the public administration authorities are obligated to take all steps which will cause the party to accept the information. The gloss emphasises that the authority, instructing the party about its right to waive the right to appeal, may not limit itself to the general indication of the effects of the decision obtaining the final and validity of the decision, but should also inform the party that the submission of such a declaration they deprive it of the possibility to lodge a complaint to an administrative court.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":158454,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Administracji i Prawa","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133938837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
