CZY ZAKRES PODMIOTOWY PRAWA POLSKIEGO JEST ZGODNY Z DECYZJĄ WYKONAWCZĄ RADY (UE) 2022/382 W SPRAWIE MASOWEGO NAPŁYWU WYSIEDLEŃCÓW Z UKRAINY?
IS THE SUBJECTIVE SCOPE OF POLISH LAW CONSISTENT WITH COUNCIL IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2022/382 ON THE MASS INFLUX OF DISPLACED PERSONS FROM UKRAINE?

Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses a problem whether the war in Ukraine is so specific that it was necessary to adopt the Act of 12 March 2022 on assistance to Ukrainian citizens in connection with the armed conflict in the territory of that country, instead of providing assistance under the Act on granting protection to foreigners of 13 June 2003. Based on a preliminary examination of Polish law, the Geneva Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees of 1951, Directive 2001/55/EC on minimum standards for giving temporary protection in the event of a mass influx of displaced persons, the Council Implementing Decision (EU) 2022/382 establishing the existence of a mass influx of displaced persons from Ukraine, and scholars’ opinions, the author has established that the Polish legislator rightly extended the subjective scope of the law applicable to persons granted temporary protection, and the respective Polish regulations are consistent with the letter and the spirit of international law. "De lege ferenda" conclusions are also propounded.
