COMMENTARY TO THE JUDGMENT OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL TRIBUNAL OF 19 JUNE 2018 (REF. NO. SK 19/17)

The commentary contains reflections on the proper arrangement of legal matters between statutes and regulations. In the commented judgment, the Constitutional Tribunal decided that the introduction - by the force of a sub-statutory act - of the obligation to place the symbols of the cause of disability on the disability certificate is inconsistent with the Constitution. At the same time, the Tribunal declared that the symbols shall be specified in a statute. The commentary contains the author's opinion on the relations between a statute and a regulation in the context of regulations restricting constitutional rights and freedoms. In particular, the necessity to comprehensively formulate the key matters in a statute is pointed to, while the executive's task is to regulate the detailed matters.
