Informacja na temat procesu opiniowania zgodności projektów ustaw federalnych z prawem UE w Niemczech.
Notice concerning the process of giving opinion on the compliance of federal bills with EU law in Germany.

Summary/Abstract: In Germany, the Ministry of Justice plays a central role in assessing the compatibility of draft federal laws with EU legislation. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and other ministries are also involved in this process. The Federal Minister of Justice may raise an “objection” to any bill which is inconsistent with the law (including EU law). Each new bill requires an explanatory statement which must also deal with the relationship of the bill and the EU law (with few exceptions). In fact, the responsibility for ensuring that the law adopted by the Bundestag is consistent with EU law rests primarily on the Federal Government and, within it, primarily on the legal services of the Federal Ministry of Justice.
