Summary/Abstract: The opinion deals with a bill amending the Act – Family and Guardianship Code (Paper No. 3469), considered by the Health Committee and Social Policy and Family Committee. According to the request, the opinion focuses on legal and legislative aspects of the bill. The author claims that the bill introduces substantial derogation from the existing rules for determining filiation of the child, developed by the most eminent representatives of the Polish private law. He claims also that some of the proposed provisions have an anti-system character. He concludes that the bill may violate constitutional guarantees of legality and fair legislative procedure by the fact that the procedure of its adoption is inconsistent with the procedural rules required to amend law codes.
